That's awesome Herb ;)

:roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:

ps. the hilly hundred has the same elevation gain as Cool Breeze (at least based on everyone's garmins ;) )

I registered. Hilly century.

right on!!!!!

What's the hotel situation like... are SoCalers planning on reserving a block of rooms? I'm not expecting panty raids, but a pre- or post-ride gathering would be super duper.

I may stay in Cambria since the SU may be going....then I would stay the weekend for some wine tasting!

Is this the week after the Grand Tour Lite, like last year? I rode the hilly five days after the double metric last year and I could feel it in my legs something nasty. :o It is a gorgeous century!

Joy, I will most likely get a room up there with double beds if you'd like to split. It would be way too tough to drive up there the mornig of!

You, too, Trac! We could put 3-4 a room if people want to. :D

yeah... uhmmmm.... ME???? I don't think you're gonna want to be in the same room as VMC and I :p

... however, I do appreciate the offer ;)

OK, you're on, Mary. I don't mind getting up early, but driving from LA makes it a bit TOO early... even for me!

How tough is the hilly? I recall you saying the route behind Cayucos and 46 was pretty tough?

My wife and I are doing the flat century. I would do the hilly one except that we did it last year and she doesn't wants he flat one this year. I'll also have done Everest Challenge the weekend before...

OK, you're on, Mary. I don't mind getting up early, but driving from LA makes it a bit TOO early... even for me!

Great, I'll reserve a room today to get good options. I go for cheap, cheap (place to sleep kind of thing) - so, unless you can't stand Motel 6-ening, you'd better tell me now! ;) :D

:o Not touching that one...or the Do Not Disturb sign on your door. :p

Someone better get nygirl and the posse on this one!!

Oh, that's RIGHT...46 sucks major, but hey, I like the punishment. :p

I don't mind, ME. As long as its a non-smoking, non-pet room.

I don't smoke, but see, there is this little tarantula I bring with me on rides and all...:p

I shave my tarantula before every ride.

I'm just not into pet-friendly motels... cat hair allergy, ya know.

I shave my tarantula before every ride.

***thunk***

I shave my tarantula before every ride.

Um...I don't think that's good for the tarantula...:p

Hmm... I better go double check my How to Care For Your Arachnid manual...

How tough is the hilly? I recall you saying the route behind Cayucos and 46 was pretty tough?

I thought it was pretty easy, there was one extra climb and otherwise the routes were pretty similar. But I'm probably the wrong one to ask...

Hmm... I better go double check my How to Care For Your Arachnid manual...
:lol: Lots of petting and stroking. At least that's how I treat my tarantula and I've yet to be bitten. :D

Mine is neglected. I don't think I feed my tarantula enough. They're carnivorous, you know.

I am on the fence :( Lara, myself and my husband went last year ) however its my daughters 13th birthday this year ...a teenager is born :eek: ....She's having a party a few weeks before at the Mandalay Bay so perhaps she won't mind us missing in action on the actual day. Decisions Decisions.......:rolleyes: :mad: :o :cry:

edit: The rest of the posse is down last time I checked except Sonya, I think she may stay home and work but I have time to wear her down. Everyone has agreed to do the Big Sur 2 day camp and ride weekend up North.

You are NO WAY, NO HOW old enough to have a teenage daughter. Or did you have her when you were 10???

The hilly route takes Old Creek Rd. From Hwy 1 to Hwy 46 is a little over 8 miles, then another 2.5 miles to the top of Hwy 46. When you leave Hwy 1 you start climbing about 2.5 miles to the top of Whale Rock Reservoir, an average of 3.5% with a ½ mile of 6.5%. Next is a mile of downhill before you start climbing again. The next part of the climb is a little over 1 ½ miles an averages 3.8%. Then comes the steep climb, 1.6 miles 9.2% with pitches to 13%, then a 1 ½ downhill with some rollers to Hwy 46. Hwy 46 to the top is 4 miles of 4%, then its 9 miles of fast downhill with 2 rollers to Hwy 1. I hope this helps, if you have any other questions contact me I ride Old Creek quit often.
