We started at Rock Candy (in the rain) and by the time we had finished one lap (there were two) most of the field had already worn their brake pads all the way down. Don't forget, this was in the days of cantilevers... People were DNFing left and right because they simply could not slow down.<br /><br />The finish (it was still raining) was down a big hill and then through an enormous mud puddle - it must have been about 50' long and 1-2' deep. It was nice in a way as it slowed you down and everyone came down that last hill fully out of control!<br /><br />I had to take my bike TOTALLY apart and my clothes never did get clean. The only consolation was back then most people did not use suspension so that was one piece of equipment we did not have to overhaul.<br /><br />Awesome ride! I'm glad you got that bottle and that you did not have to quit.Martin Criminalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14279350994717100477noreply@blogger.com
