Sorry I missed you. I am sure you would have really enjoyed the chunky descents!

I would pay $5 to participate in Herzie vs Runs bike rides as long as professional medical assistance would be forbidden. For example, Runs with Scissors would do a 15-mile/2,800' ride/HAB of TERCL with 5-Oaks and Car Wreck thrown in to help express Herzie's point that Runs' bike riding is mild sauce. Then (and this must come second because if it were first, the contest would end there) Herzie would do a 30-mile/5,000'ride of MTT to GMR to Mt. Baldy Village, only to keel over in withering cramps somewhere along GMR without ever making it to the Village. Runs could photograph the suffering and post in the I'm riding My Bike Now (Live and Direct) thread for our entertainment. If I had to pick a survivor, I would bet on Runs with Scissors, but I would rather ride with Herzie, especially in Laguna.

I am so flattered!

And yes - in my present condition, my quads would seize at exactly 2400' of climbing. @Runs with Scissors would win this competition.

In my best condition, I would cramp at about 3800' of climbing, so I would still lose.
 
Whiting-STT- Luge- Whiting tomorrow (Sunday 10/23)? I may push beyond the Luge to a spot I call CTA (Chris' Turn Around) that will put the ride right around 3000' of climbing.

Anyone interested in accompanying me? Start time is negotiable.

EDIT: Just learned that rain may change these plans. Ahh well, that makes it a game-time decision then, doesn't it?

EDIT EDIT: Any9one know if it rained much in Whiting? I still want to head there, but I do not want to contend with a muddy Mustard. OC Parks Whiting site is silent on the matter (no rain closures or alerts).

EDIT EDIT EDIT: 9:00 am meet time at Wahoos parking lot. So far just me and a guy named Todd. Anyone else care to join us there in 90 minutes?
