I think we may be doing our super shuttle run this day. Chilao to JPL or more like to Monrovia. 5,000 feet of climbing and 8,000 of descending. With something around 35 miles of riding. Probably something like 10 hours total time out there. But if for some reason that one falls thru, I'll be doing this one. Either way it's gonna hurt.

Excellent ride today!!

SingleSSpeedster, RIDE2LIVE, Bart (RIDE2LIVE's buddy) & myself rode to Potato Mountain via: Thonson Creek Trail, then up Burbank (CWP), then up onto Potato Mountain on the way down a RIDE2LIVE came down the ridge, then to CWP then hit the singletrack in Marshall. hardly anyone was on Marshall so we were able to totally fly down it, it was bitchen!

Stat's:
~31+ miles
~3800+ feet of elevation gain
3 hours 21 minutes actual ride time (~4 hours 10 minutes total)

The pace was very quick, and we even make a stop at a buddy's house on the way back for a quick break.

Props to SingleSSpeedster & RIDE2LIVE on the killer climbing, I know it's torture for SS'ers.

The fireroad to Potato was graded very nicely which made for easier than usual climbing (it's still a butt kicker).

Next week, Anti-Gravity Climbing Ride!! See you guys there!!
