Great Job everybody! Looks like you had a fantastic time. Perhaps I'll do it next year.................Isa want to join an all chick team for Dalton next year? You kick ass girl. Theresa you freaking did awesome for your first 24 hour race, are you an addict now? Should have stuck with that plan this year...........could've avoided getting my butt kicked by a very large jackass at work saturday morning. 
Again congrats to all who participated.

If you and Gee Spot had made it, the awesomeness factor would have been off the scale. I wonder how my wife is going to feel when she finds out this one is now an annual event...Mtbkngrl said:Great Job everybody! Looks like you had a fantastic time.

Glad to hear you are basically ok, by the way.
You should have made an All chick team ! you would have had a Podium spot , just by finishing , seeing as there were only to teams in the all female division.Mtbkngrl said:

Yep, she would do more than fine - she'd do great!
justbill said:
Yeah - there is something about riding and feeling tired and hungry and knowing there is a personal pizza with fresh toppings waiting for you when you return to Monkey base camp that really can motivate you while riding at night!
I'll second that chant for 55!!!
Tweek said:How that bike came through unscathed, I'll never know.
It did have a slight seat issue on the pre ride though

that was damn funny at 1:00am (I felt bad laughing so loud being others were sleeping)
but next year..........54
Hey, check it out. Bikerag.com has the elevation profile for the course. This is from 2003, but I hear the course was the same for 2004.

That last little kick up around the 3.8 mile area was so bittersweet. You knew it was almost over and some downhill was coming but damn it was so steep and after such a long climb.
I hated that little climb. It wouldn't have been so bad without all the rocks on the trail. (edit: we called that climb "The Demoralizer"Westy said:
)I am assuming the yellow dot at 7.12 mile mark is checkpoint 2 after the pipeline climb.
JT - Did you do that in your middle ring?
jdcamb - Uhh **** No!
He he I thought it was a fun climb but as I wasn't racing I will shut the **** up. That and I better get a new computer. My mileage is way off for that course....jdcamb

LOL!jdcamb said:
I granny geared that mofo from bottom to top, all four times.
Wow 1100 total feet of climbing. Douglas and I were just discussing this last night and only were gussing around 700 -800 feet.
Makes me feel pretty good that we were doing 1100 feetsplat said:
Douglas ,
did you race the course again last night ?
did you race the course again last night ?
splat said:
nope....the course was only 2.15 miles (we had to do 4 laps) but the over under was in the course
They should leave the over/under up for the rest of the season!douglas said:nope....the course was only 2.15 miles (we had to do 4 laps) but the over under was in the course

Cool! But Splat's pics are better
Hahaha - that's what we all said!Echo said:Cool! But Splat's pics are better
They seem to be the masters of capturing dumb looks. Either that or I rode my whole lap with my tongue out. Anyway, it was nice to get a bump and a reminder of what a great weekend it was...
Check out Tweek's pic, the last one in the 333 group. I almost wanna buy the pic just so I can see what the hell is going in with his faceghostrider said:
