A few Day 2 random thoughts:
- I love descending Team Big Bear!
- TG is overgrown and will pucker you up at race speed
- When they built TG, 500mm wide "Euro" flat bars must have been the rage 'cause my 700mm wide bars do not fit between the trees. Not even close.
- The new section of Mid Mtn Trail could make you reconsider your tire choice

Day 3 came with the added bonus of riding with Dave & Lynda. Woohoo! Since they were in the "neighborhood" after racing the Draper SuperXC on Sat, we hooked up for a ride today. Most excellent.
A few Day 3 random thoughts:
- The new Round Valley route rocks! (we rode this first)
- The Drift Road + The Steps climb, in the sun, is gonna hurt
- The Crescent Mine Grade descent, with the grass cut short so you can see where you are going, is friggin' awesome!

hey dave, looks like good times. If you know any locals interested in a cheap point to point entry let me know. I will be having knee surgery instead of racing. Cheers Sean Doyle. doyle83455@yahoo.com
