So I completed the Oregon 600k-XTR. It was by far the hardest ride I've ever done. There was 21,000ft of climbing and it was extremely hot. I mean hot. It was also my slowest brevet ever in that I finished with about an hour to spare. I'm totally fine with that as finishing was all I wanted to do. I'll do a full-on ride report a little later. My Hilsen worked well, I had no mechanicals. I did have one flat but that's the only flat I've had on a brevet this year. With completion of this ride I'm now a super randonneur. At one point during the ride I was thinking "I'll never do anything longer than a 300k ever again, this is nuts." But today I'm already beginning to think about doing the Cascade 1200k next year. I mean hell, if you can ride 600k what's another 600k?
I'll probably cross post this on the Randon group so sorry for the redundancy if you're a member of that group also. http://www.flickr.com/photos/organize/?start_tab=one_set72157619102429316 --mike --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
