Less than a week out! Geeking out on weather forecasts. Checking final lists. Getting gear ready. Freaking the heck out.
Finally got around to finishing my ride report. A ton of fun was had. Type 2 fun to be sure. http://www.btmski.com/bike-ride/having-a-plan-mammoth-gravel-classic-100-report/
I'm working on a report with pictures. We went to Cuyuna Sunday for a "recovery" ride.
Hey Slim. Did you come down and enjoy the "beautiful" weather and course this weekend? The hundred was pretty awesome. I rode with the lead pack until we got to the Gandy at mile 63. The Gandy was about as bad as I've…
Prepping for TI V13, my buddy helped by organizing an overnight "bikepacking" trip. Really it was a gravel century ride that started at 10pm with a short "rest" along side the trail. It was quite a bit of fun for an…
I thought this one was pretty good from this past weekend's Mammoth Gravel Classic 100 in Saint Croix Falls WI. It isn't a race, but we were definitely racing. This is what happens when you are just hanging on to the…

Hey Slim, \n \nWhich one are you looking to do? 30, 70, or 100? They have slightly different profiles. \n \nGenerally speaking it's pretty dang flat. There are no big climbs (except maybe the start of the 30). You may…
One month out. I've had some great training rides in the last few weeks. A few in the local wildlife management area that has some nice gravel roads. They are flat as a pancake, but some are very sandy and with the…
Anyone else getting excited* about TI V13? Our cross country ski season, such as it was, is over so training and preparing has turned over full time to TI. Aside from riding regularly now (increase from the occasional…
Hills: I had roughly 6000' feet per my 920xt last year. I'm not sure if any of the hills top 400', definitely a few around 300', and a number of them stacked back to back to back that add up to more than 400'. Oriole is…
Reviving this old thread to share some reports from this event this past weekend. http://www.cyclova.com/2015/04/2015-mammoth-gravel-classic-delivers.html…
