Every spring I watch my favorite sporting event which consists of a bunch of spots racing across my screen, it takes a month for them to get from the top of my monitor to the bottom. I watch riveted all month long.
Tomorrow morning the toughest mountain bike race in the world commences. 2700 miles from Banff Canada to Antelope Wells New Mexico, 200,000 feet of elevation gain and completely self supported. I love pulling the race up on my monitor and stalking the racers from a distance watching their spots travel insane distances across the map each and every day and listening to the daily racer call-in reports.
Good Luck to all the Divide racers you are going to need it.
Here's to loads of junk food and saddle sores.
