I thought you must be up to something wild! I think my long distance cycling
ambition extends only to the double so I am just going to wish you the best luck
and express my admiration for your determination. 44,000 feet! 525 miles!
That's a bike ride! Are you doing it solo?

John,

My next ultra ride is June 1st in Portland Oregon. 525 miles non-stop
with 44,000 feet of climbing. There are 2 and 4 person team divisions.
With Nate and Bruce you have the makings of a good team!

I've actually spent the winter riding, something I've never done before.
Usually I put the bike away in late October and don't see it again until
April. I'm trying to increase my mileage, which is why I'd like to do
90-100 Saturday. Will start from my house in Harrison around 10, but may
start earlier if the weather still calls for clouds and rain in the
afternoon. Pace wont be too fast since I'm still using just the small
ring, even on the downhills! Probably average around 16 with one to two
quick stops.
