OK - we're HERE!!! Steve, Ryan (son) and the hound doggie. Pulled the trailer down and staying in a place called Meadowcliff in Coleville. This is a pretty neat little RV park. Heated pool, full hookups, very nice amenities. Going to ditch Steve and Ryan tomorrow, take the truck to the starting line very early and do as many of these big hills as I can!
Gearing - taking the 'cross bike with slicks, 700c wheels, MTB gears front and rear and big assed disc brakes. Going to dig on those for the downhills.
By the way, if anyone is on their way, just note that they are predicting T-storms tomorrow afternoon. Might bring a light rain jacket (or at least a Hefty garbage bag) for wet downhills.
