I had a good ride with you guys. I'll see about putting together the video clips of people at the "fun spots."

I'm so envious.  I wish I could have gone!

I haven't done 6 in years.  How long was the ride, start to finish?

The scraps of rubber littering up the side of the trail is so Eco-friendly!  Another example of the Govt just trying to help. :)

We hit the trail for the first 10 mile or so loop of 5 about 9:15 or so? Then came back to the trucks, took a quick break, then took off for 6. We got back from riding 6, I was loaded up and on the road out of the staging area by about 1:20.

I Saw Rossie here yesterday slide off the track and wreck about 50 yards from me in the "Corkscrew". When he got up he started walking around like a zombie....he didn't know where he was!  It was nice of Nicky Haden to stop by after the race and let him ride bitch on the back of his bike though..

Thanks to everyone for the great ride.  Firt time counter clockwise and it was nice ending in the shade rather then in the sun on the ridge, thanks Jacob!

At the SacMile, these guys are fast!

Counterclock wise is the hard way :) .  Super weighlossslyko never went counterclockwise.

CounterClockwise is the easy way.  Climbing those switchbacks & going DOWN the gnome palace is simple.  Going down the big hills, etc.

But truth be told, either way is FANTASTIC! :D   I still think the dog leg of 5 going UP is harder.  Shorter............... but Harder.  What do you think Rapid_Dove? I think trail 6 would take me about 5 hours today.

P.S.  I once did 6 alone and couldn't make it up that hill just past the first bridge, had to go back around the LONG way.  I was parked at the bottom of the WST. I tried that hill 4 or 5 times.  Ugh.  It was rather frustrating.

P.S.S. Now what do you guys really use tampons for?????? :)
