Ride report anyone? Or are there no survivors?
Hope ya'll had fun. I don't believe the weather could have been better.

The weather was gorgeous. It was my first time doing six gap, and only second ride trip in real mountains, and at 185 I'm kind of a porker, but I had a ball. Most of my friends were announcing time goals, but I chose not to have one and just focus on trying to finish. The end result was I had a sub 6:00 mountain century (ride time) and a blast.
Hogpen is a bear, but it really wasn't as bad as I was psyched up about, but it sure wasn't easy..
We're already planning on doing it again next year.

Hogpen is a booger. I've attempted BBB twice and haven't finished either time. I'm also a porker and need to lose some weight before I attempt it again. It'll be June next year and I'm already pumped about it.
