DriftlessDB 08-21-2006, 08:48 AM Did the 100K, it was a lot of fun. Very well organized and well run. The final pitch on Dyerson Road was a killer. My buddy and I plan on doing it again next year. Dave jbmadtown 08-22-2006, 04:32 PM I also did the 100k of the Dairyland Dare, my first challenge ride!- maybe I'll try the 200K next year! I also thought it was a great event overall, some road construction that the organizers couldn't get around- otherwise a great experience. Even the weather cooperated! I expect it will be a lot bigger next year once the word gets out. Anyone thinking of biking the quadrupedal? Can't decide between the 50 and 75 miles. bdobes 08-27-2006, 09:02 PM I did the 300K. It was a well-run event, but they need a better energy drink with some more calories. Most of the turns were marked, but make sure you have a map to ensure you don't go off course. I silenced the few people that I talked to that predicted that I wouldn't finish because a) I had a 25t cassette b) I had never done an event as hilly as that for 200K let alone 300K. I was second across the line.... |
