6 hours of power - sologoat pics

upcoming races:

7.23.05 - 8 hours of round top

7.30.05 - wilderness 101

both are new venues for me. round top is a looped race (think the distance is around 9 miles), should be pretty much the standard 'thang. lap, bottle, lap, bottle... just like the 6 hours of power - but only different. dah.

the 101 - one friggin' huge gigantic mega super duper 100 mile loop with 5 food stops. and to note - NO NUETRAL support. yep, you send bags ahead and they have them at the stops. all refueling done via yourself. don't know about this type of format for me as i tend to flip out very easily during races and if i can't find my bags i will go ballistic. should be interesting none-the-less. oh, and all the big guns will be there too getting in a warm-up for worlds and possibly the NORBA enduro coming up next month.

that's it - gotta roll. big ride today - 4 hours'ish.

rain, rain, stay away. i need to listen to my ipod today.

ride your brains out. sologoat out.

i'm pretty sure that there's neutral support (food/water/etc...) at the wilderness 101 aid stations. if you need anything specific you need to put it in your drop bags.

i haven't done the 101, but i'm pretty sure they handle it the same way they do at the shenandoah mountain 100 (both organized by chris scott)

List of aid stations. I hear they have water, Hammer Gels, PBJs etc.
Tubes and more and will even fill
your pack up. This is my first 101.

This list of Aid Stations below was sent by Chris Scott in confirmation
e mails:
#1 is 19 miles in
#2 is 40 miles in
#3 is 60 miles in
#4 is 74 miles in
#5 is 89 miles in
- finish is 12 miles from #5 @ 101 miles

Hear they have Gatorade, but I might take a couple baggies of Perpetuem & Heed to mix 'cause that's what I use.

Good luck.
