Notice: The 2006 LT100 Mountain Bike Race entry allotment has been met, and the race is full!
And it's like that every year. People lining up to pay $125 per to suffer for (hopefully) just under 12 hours. That way, you get a belt buckle!

i've done that race twice.

the two most grueling days of my life.
also the two most satisfying.

the turnaround point at almost 13,000ft'
is the beginning of a 45-55mph downhill that seems to never end.

two buckles and i don't even own a belt.
