By the look of previous comments You have made it. <BR/>If you have Jill **CONGRATULATIONS**!<BR/>It's been quite nerve racking to think how dangerous this could be.

I don't have my mountain bike anymore (much to due with the baggage-weight limit you spoke about... only room for 1 bike) but I sure do have lots of great memories riding in the Maine winters with homemade studded tires (used carbon-carbide car studs from the local car-tire store).<BR/><BR/>Good luck in the race!!!JVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03021789526759165100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-45323182736265824722007-02-17T10:41:00.000-07:002007-02-17T10:41:00.000-07:00Ride as tho that black bear is right behind you.

"<BR/><BR/>Jill,<BR/><BR/>I've been reading your blog for some time now (awesome writing and pics, by the way), and based on the consistency of your training that you write about, I think you're hardly just a weekend warrior. You train hard, you focus, and your ability to seemingly accurately assess your own strenghts and weaknesses is admirable. Few will be more prepared than you for this event, and I believe you'll do quite well. Race your own race, and most of all, enjoy it!! Good luck! We're all rooting for you.<BR/><BR/>-RyanFonkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04504462046067745769noreply@blogger.com
