I'd probably be down, I'd probably want to borrow that Lemond from my friend again, or perhaps just buy the fucker off him. Damn I need a road bike.

the deal is you ride up and coast down. last year it was so cold and rainy that they had to drive us down. but i cant wait to do it again, pain is good.

I'd be totally down to do this if i had people to train for it with me. I assume my daily rides up to the troll from the burke aren't quite enough ;)
