Quite but thankful it is a bit flexy. Holy jackhammer batman. I think the main problem is me. My switch is always turned on.
Anyway. Who has 26" dinosaur tubeless tires laying around? It's retro time, clutched rear deraileur and all.

Did the Wrightwood 50 on Saturday. Fun course on trails most Socal riders don't even know exist. Mostly by taking fewer and shorter rest stops I cut a full 1.5 hours off last years time but still got the coveted DFL.

Image

After dinner I started out to do some recon for a bikepack route I'm putting together and managed to get the truck stuck in deep sand crossing a wash. Exactly what I want to be doing after a 50 miler is dig the truck out :twisted: Had to jack it up, dig out the sand and place rocks to make a solid path out. Was a 2 beer job. Called it a night after that and found the closest flat spot off the road to camp.

Image

Went back the next morning to ride that and another road that was gated. Some great views. The gated road is a winner for bikepacking route. The road with the death was became impassable to vehicles a mile further with massive ruts and washouts.

Evdog, that's quite an achievement, if I hear your right. Two DFL's in consecutive years! Impressive!

Not sure about a podium finish...the fast guys were done in around 5.5 hours. :shock:

I DFL most of these "events," its more the challenge of taking on a tough route for me.

I did try to keep rest stops shorter this year and take fewer pics which made up most of the time improvement. I was about 25 mins behind the closest bunch of riders. They were all using tailwind for energy, which basically gets mixed into the camelbak or bottles and replaces your regular food. Not sure that would work for me, but if I didn't have to stop to eat it would definitely save more time. Not that I care, I still be slow, just a bit less slow.
