I was one of the numerous people wearing "Mountains of Misery" jerseys. I had one of the purple ones from 2011
Hey, we could make it a "three-fer" and do the Eat a Peach ride in Westminster next weekend. Still haven't decided on that one though. Day-of registration is $50, which is kinda steep...
It was a challenging ride after Mountain Mama - no doubt!
I did see a number of folks cross training on the ride up Mt. Laurel road back to San-Mar on leg 3 of the century and then more on Cool Hollow road on the way to Smithsburg.
I'll be in my truck Saturday headed to Myrtle beach then on to Lake Okeechobee with my bow to get a Gator and hogs.
I have decided to take the cross bike along to practice some of the challenging overpass repeats they have at the beach and in Florida.
Won't be back until the 28th, just in time to get the legs wound up for the Civil War Century out of Thurmont. Need to get that one over early so I can jump in the tree that evening - Archery season starts on the 8th this year
