Taking full advantage of daylight while we have it, to the snake we go:
Not Normal! What a ride. Hope everyone had a… time.Btw, the descent on Appleby is good – gravel is gone and it’s mint.
That was insane. How people bike so fast? Huh? How?48kph to the 401… you might as well drive FFS.
I have arranged for a motorcycle with a red flag on it to marshal the riders through the gravel section at a controlled speed.
I vote for waiting for everyone at the top
I think due to the water that will be running down it after this rain that we bypass it altogether or at least neutralize attacks on it.
I plan on yelling “grupetto” at the base of Rattlesnake 🙂
Ya, I rode up the north side on Saturday. Freshly paved. Some gravel left over, nothing too bad though. We will have a pre-ride and pre-descent warning about it, not too bad.
There was construction on Appleby just after the climb on Wednesday, anyone been up since then? One side had a lot of loose pavement.
