Good reports and pictures guys. I was there too and have to agree that the road conditions were brutal in spots. Lots of spots. It probably didn't help that I had sprained my thumb in a minor crash about a week before and felt every bump.

Did anyone else notice the the guy doing the ride on a fixie? He was grinding it out standing the whole way on every climb. (And making pretty decent time - he was on a sub 8 hour total time pace).
