The climb is pretty gruling (sp?), but very doable if you're in decent shape. I've done it in a 23, but a 25 sure would have been nice!

I think the worst part of the race is that they don't let you ride down IIRC!

That descent it a brake melter. At least it doesn't have gravelly blind corners like Reeds Gap.

yeah lol i completely toasted the brakes in my car coming down there from a dh race a few years ago... i litterally didnt have any brakes left at all when i got to the bottom, kinda fun feeling the brake petal hit the floor board
