I've used a backpack hydration system for about

I'm sure alot of people still use the bottles though.

I wish...
The pedals are all scratched up, stupid cleats on my shoes, and the cables are all smacked up. I try to wash it after a ride so all the frame does't crap out on me like my other one did... I am kind of anal about cleanlieness of my bike after a ride...

Actually, it's not a 12 mile ride. When the 12 Miles of Hell first started, it was indeed 12 miles. Now I think it's between 17-20. It's probably not what I'd consider "epic" either, but it is very tough. It earns its name.

ej - If you are talking about the monkey the frameset retails for 425
