Broccoli Cog - so good to hear you had a great time. Would have liked to have met up with more Riv owners as well. Never enough time. Thinking about camping next year, if only to get some more time to catch up with folks. I did the 'short' Mystery ride. It was a blast, but some of the hills, esp

Looking forward to meeting you all! Decided against the 100k since it's my first time doing the D2R2, I'll be riding the Green River Tour with a buddy of mine. Say hello if you see me, I'll be on my green Sam with drops. Safe travels out there, and have fun tomorrow! -Peter On Thu, Aug 17, 201

I rode the D2R2 in 2011, 2012 and 2013 (115k once and 100k twice, never had the balls for anything longer-- even the 100k is pretty challenging), but I haven't been back since. I may make it back this year. One thing that prompted me to take a break from it, despite the breathtaking beauty of th
