We will definitely enjoy this ride sushi, almost 7000 feet of accumulated elevation. Our mistake was we joined the group that Arland Macasieb was leading. His pace was really fast for 125 mile ride so at mile 17 pit stop, Danny and I decides to slow down and lose the group but Liong and Dino was able to keep up. At mile 32 pit stop we saw Dino, he said, him and his friends got drop as well. At mile 50 pit stop we saw Liong this time and he said that him and more riders again got drop. So going back Liong decides to just stayed with me and Danny and helped me finished this ride.  7000 ft! Is this harder than the NJ Fondo? That was Arland's regular century ride without the 2.4 mile swim and 26.2 mile run. ;D But hey! You guys did more than a century and that's some accomplishment  When are Oranges doing the 7 lakes/Bear Mt ride? |

Hahaha Danny and I only climbed 6630 feet because we got lost and I forced Danny to skipped one steep mountain. lol! I heard NJ Fondo got more than 8000 feet of accumulated elevation.  Oh we can set it up a 7 lakes/BM/Storm King/West Point route sometime in September. We can get 6500-7500 feet of accumulated elevation feet easy on an 80 mile route. |
