I'm going into Mitchell fairly cold this year. As of last week I wasn't doing the ride but a friend talked me into riding with her. She's pretty fit so I hope I don't get my butt kicked. I'm riding 75 miles with her tomorrow and then I will get in a last long ride on Sat. I have a few really good rides in this Spring but I've let my weight creep up so I'm not where I normally like to be for this ride. Oh well.
