Sooo... First hiccup. Just got to the hotel room in south Denver and fired up the Garmin Edge 800... All my courses have been deleted apparently... Truly I just need Toby's gpx file, as the topo map I have loaded doesn't show the CT... Does anyone have any ideas/friends in the area? or a laptop with the Garmin software loaded that I could "rent"?! I've called a few bike shops looking for help and haven't gotten any luck...
Thought about the library but I don't think I'll be able to download the needed program or file.

Shoot. The 800 can be a little finicky. If you can get up to Leadville I'd be happy to help you w/ my computer. Do some gas station recon at the same time?  I bet someone in the front range will come through, or could bring a laptop to the start maybe? Good luck. |

Is Apple out this year? Anyone seen him?
If he normally hangs out just past hwy 114,he wasn't there when I scouted it back in late June. Just some cheap styrofoam coolers with cheap Safeway brand sodas. |

Unreal! Problem solved! Steve came through huge! Drove all the way across town just to plug me in and reload the gpx! Wouldn't even accept cash to cover gas! Can't tell you how thankful I am! At this point all I can promise is that I'll pay it forward! Colorado you've made a fan out of me!!!

Sorry I didn't thank you for doing this again, Joe! I will be handing out the mtbcast # at the start for all who want to use it. Call-ins definitely add a lot for family and friends. |

Been thinking about this a lot, but lets say a racer gives up in BV-- how the heck can someone find a way back to the front range Boulder/Denver area from there? There seems to be no one in the area doing 1 way car rentals, and public transportis non-existent. As an out of stater, who sees BV as a logical bail out point if one doesnt feel ready for the 200 miles of no resupply to Silverton, I am perplexed as to how I might be able to get back if I call it quits there. Hitchhike and hope??? Bike back to breck (if the bike isnt broken, and Im not too tired) and get a shuttle?
