First year riding this race, and I loved it. Signed up for the 50-proof but chickened out as I stared down at the 25-mile down and back of Skull Valley. I knew I'd get SAGged out if I attempted, so I did the 25-proof and it was tough enough on my SS. Didn't train well enough. 
Three flats, one broken pump, one OTB crash and a huge grin. Have no idea what I placed, but it won't be pretty... close to 5 hours or so.
Scenery was just incredible... Prescott was great, volunteers were great, fellow riders were friendly and great... it was great.
I'll be back next year, but am thinking of doing it on my full-squishy geared bike.

I get the e-newsletter about this ride and haven't been able to attend. Looks like a great course!
