I cannot believe how fast they are moving. Can they keep it going?

I am coming out of Grand Junction. Have not booked travel. I have been thinking about flying to Calgary the 8th. I open to covering my share of gas, munchies, and vehicle expense for anyone that has space for my bike and I.

I am planning on being there. Currently coming out of Grand Junction. Looking for space for my 5th wheel in Kremling or Leadville.

I'm for the change. I got run over last year. It really sucked!

I've spent the last 5 days out there. The trail is dry and loose. Took off race kings and mounted x kings. Just back from 3 day out and back. Now mounting Trail Kings.

I'm in. In-between projects, riding strong, crashed and burned last year (Foose's Creek) during an ITT, can't stay away. Planning on spending the next two weeks up there on technical single track at elevation. Good luck to all!

Congrats everyone on finishing the full meal deal, especially those that duked it out in the end with snow and mud.  Before we celebrate the finish of the currently-in-progrees awesome unicycle traverse of the AZT, as I return from post-ride vaca and assimilate back into my mild-mannered-engineer-by-day persona; I've photo-dumped to the fakebook the few random pics I took during this year's 750 experience. For those interested: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1733709290178262.1073741834.100006176231590&type=1&l=228e82ec20

Perhaps I will put together a blog-post report of sorts this time around, as I continue to process went happened.  For now, I'm still somewhat preoccupied with sleeping and eating.  Oh, and work and family, too.

Nice pics.

Scott

I'm a scratch. 3859 above Tucson trying to figure out how much higher to top (4009) quad runner come by, we are all waving at each other as driver decides to turn hard right. His back right wheel went into my front wheel. I'm yelling as he continues on, he never heard me. I'm yelling, cussing, and waving my arms. He never looked back. My tire is flat, spokes bent. Guys from Broadway Cycles fetched me off the hill. End of the rude for me.  angry4

Hello,

I am still alive. In Tucson at Broadway Bicycles getting my front caliper rebuilt. Off the start, it began with a thorn puncture, followed with a sidewall tear out. My front pads were screaming so I replaced them. Dirt build up on a piston with wore out pads or what I have no clue. The piston would not retrack and I ended up with a locked up front rotor. Fought it into Patagonia where I went to work with some mineral oil and Qtips. Thought I had it fixed and headed back out on the trail. More squealing and caliper issues. At that time I met up with JD. We pushed through the night attempting to clear Canelo Pass. Eventually, I just had to flip the bike over and pull my front break pads. Road to Tucson without front breaks, burned up the rear pads, Flintstone era brakes! No pads in stock, luckily I have two sets with me.
