Rode the Hollow top 200 permanent with Jason and Karel. Two of the three Montana Randonners, it was nice having some kindred spirits to ride with. I felt really good for the first 60 miles and then started having some serious leg cramps. We had a great pace going it would have been great if I could have kept up that pace. Backed it down a bit from that point and went into a survival mode and I did. For my longest ride since 07 I am very happy with the ride oh and it went through some really cool canyons the ride from Norris to Belgrade with the tailwind we had was great. Didn't take any pictures because I can't remember where my camera is guess I will have to ride it again next year!
Didn't have any bike issues the 650B set up is working great, thinking about a different saddle the San Marco is good but it is about 20 years old. Adjusted my speedo to the tyres after the ride not having a properly calibrated speedo is very annoying. Also moved my front bag up one notch as I had a hard time reading the route sheet.
Ride time of about 9 hours and a total of about 10. Great weather and a nice route good people to ride with think I will call it a success! Thanks again Jason for organizing the route and riding with us.
