Has anyone on this forum ridden Tioga Pass?
I am planning to ride from west to east and end in Lee Vining. I am getting started late in the season, so I hope to be across before the pass shuts down due to snow. My target date is October 16, 17 or 18.
I've checked out Chain Reaction's site, very nice and got me more excited. However, they A) go to the pass and then return, B) seem to be a bit more hardcore than I.
This is a pleasure trip on a road bike (non-touring).
The weekend following, I will be in Vegas for a century, so I've started to step up my riding hoping that I will peak about mid-October.
Work is killing me, cycling revives me. Thank goodness the family tolerates the insanity.
