I have been looking for details for the 2005 edition. Sent a note to the group in Baton Rouge that puts it on. Still have not heard back. Depending on the date we have a group of 6-8 planning to head down from Chattanooga. Reading the reports makes it sound insane but fun. A good old fasion suffer fest. With our luck it will fall on the same weekend as the Icycle race in North Carolina. Kind of a mountain bike version of the R.R. Last year we had a Lemans style start. It ment running up a huge hill around a pole then back to our bikes scattered, smothered and covered with snow. Before the race ended visability was gone and 3-4 inches of snow on the trail. Award ceremony had to be moved to the lodge around a roaring fire with a keg of oatmeal stout. All this fun for an entry fee of $11 last year.......PURE BLISS
