91 degrees and snow on the ground, major league course, great camping on site, Jeannie Longo motoring by on the nearby highway during the Mt. Hood Classic; What more could you ask for?
So, a toast of Pilsner Urquell to Petr, Greg, Tyler and the rest of the folks from Hurricane Racing. These guys performed some pretty superhuman exploits to pull this off this year. The course was still covered in snow only a week ago and on Saturday, Petr nearly killed himself trying to clear snow from the Rim Rock loop for the Pros and Experts. I didn't catch his name, but the guy from the Forest Service even got in the action and helped out on the course on race day. If you haven't come out for this race before, please put it on your calendar for next year as it is truly a great event.
