Trying to put thoughts together now for next year. Hope to get a ticket for the Death Ride in CA. in July. Will choose to ride Mountains of Misery in VA and / or Brasstown Baldbuster in May, but the siren song of Assault on Mt. Mitchell is possibly in there somewhere in between. My own personal "Triple Crown"?

I also got a "hall pass" for a week to do training camps or some other event somewhere next year. I'm pondering doing a PAC Tour week again in late March or early April, or I've got jppe tempting me with a Ride the Rockies group ride in June for a week.

Lots of other choices in the immediate area, and a few other rides in the Midwest (old stomping grounds) like R(ide) A(cross) IN(diana) my all time favorite, Dairyland Dare, Horrible Hilly Hundred. Want to make this year one of attempting new challenges. So many choices, so little time...
