It's not hard per se. I've ridden most of the trails they use, like Redonda Ridge, etc. It's just LONG. I've never done it but talked to a lot that have and you need to start EARLY and keep a good pace with minimal stops.

You guys really should do this. I know a lot of the riders that have a plaque and they are average riders so you will not have a problem, unless Aaron needs too many "pit stops".

I have done this ride and its a ball buster. Yes I have the finisher plaque somewhere. Good luck to those those that want to do this. All I can say is that it is all day of Barney miles with no breaks.

Its NOT that tough of a ride, just alot of miles to do in a day if you do all the hard ways, NOT saying its easy either. Go and do it, if things get too late, you have options to do the easy way or pavement.

Working on Aaron? You make it sound like it is hard to talk me into a bad idea.

We know you don't need any help with a bad idea. Now go for it but don't take the 650, you need the lightest bike you've got with a plate. Can you put a plate on Jenny's bike? The 200 would be perfect.
