You must hate the cold. The weather can vary from year to year. In 07 a storm came thru on Friday and Saturday and we had snow on Saturday. Last year the weather was perfect, 50s in the morning warming up to around 80 in the daytime. I enter the master class and race both days. If you can make through the 16,000 feet of climbing on Saturday, the 13,000 on Sunday is easy. Most riders finish around 15 hours total time. If you enter the race and drop out on Saturday you can still race on Sunday, they just wont score you. You should try it!!!!
