"Missouri native Dan Schmatz, who now lives in Colorado, was forced to abandon the race after crashing into an armadillo about three miles into the stage." -...
In the 2006 Elkhorn Stage Race, a few miles into the first stage, a rider in front of me crashed into a desert tortoise, causing several of us to go down. I...
Gotta watch out for those critters. Once, while doing a high speed descent, a friend was charged head-on by a twelve-point buck that apparently mistook my...
Low-Keyers Far and Wide, It's a fact. The Low-Key Hillclimbs are officially back for 2007. The "Just can't get enough!" series follows on the heels of the...
Some notes for Saturday's Montebello climb.... We plan to be there by 9am. Registration closes at 10am. We'll start climbing at 10:10am. Entry fee is $10,...
... We have everyone's number. You're 166. But we'll have a list sorted by last name, so after handing in a waiver form, just check off your name on the list....
... Hi - I'm new to lkhc and planning on arriving with teammate(s) by train from sf. If the caltrain is on time, this will work perfectly: scheduled to arrive...
... Our philosophy is to schedule these climbs to, wherever possible, allow for public transit access. I've very familiar with the weekend Caltrain.... Feel...
OK, everyone, Ammon's team is full of ringers. We will meet at the SF Caltrain station - all 32 of us slow fat men - and make sure that they get bumped....
I take exception with this statement. Skinnny guys like me are just as slow. =) Looking forward to sharing the pain & suffering with everyone tomorrow. ... ...
It takes real Men With Guts to be slow, its that darn power to weight entangled with free company catered lunches. I still fit in my old Boy Scout uniform,...
So... the Montebello descent requires too much breaking for my tastes. Satellite maps seem to indicate that the trail at the top hooks up with Page Mill -- has...
I noticed the same trail when I was looking at my Klimb app this afternoon. One trail connects to Page Mill, the other dumps you out at the end of Stevens...
These don't fold over a bump, and are about as light a climbing clincher that can descend as well as it climbs: http://www.nimble.net/spider.html Barry...
I've got a set of the tubular Nimble Fly's (and Horse Fly in the rear) that I really like. Strong, affordable, and as my wheel buddy said, "these are a breeze...
You can take the one that connects to Page Mill, that's not too bad. I've done it before on my training bike. Just be careful in the turns. Don't try to...
The "trail" to Page Mill Rd. is actually Montebello Rd. It just happens to be dirt past the gate (and closed to automobiles). There is another gate at the...
... During my "scouting" ride up Montebello two weeks ago, I rode this section, and it was fine. It's a lot of fun; the last little descent to the paved...
Thanks to John Gale for his excellent photos of week 1 : Montebello! http://www.flickr.com/photos/smadness/sets/72157602200794122/ Results to follow.... Dan...
Hello- Given that I rode in today's ride up Montebello, do I need to bring another release form for the rest of the climbs? Or does having my form on file ...
Thanks to Juliana Chen and Cara Coburn for helping this week, and to John Gale for his excellent photography. Once again, the photos proved invaluable in...
