Options

For some reason, over the last few weeks I've had the itch to do 24 Hours of Moab again this year. I did the event in '06 and it was cut short due to horrendious rain and cold conditions. I'm sure anyone else who raced, remebers the washed out trail, raging gullies, and the utter slop that followed. I also had basically every mechanical possible.... busted shifter pods, flats, striped bolts, and becuase of the gritty nature of moab mud, my disk brake pads were totally worn down to bare metal. Regardless of the race conditions, it was a super fun trip. We managed to cram 8 people into a rental RV and make a weekend mad dash from Ames to Moab and back again so my brother could make a test on Monday morning. My only issue is justifying the steep entry fee. Afterall, that is why I got away from Ironman events in years past....but it sure would be a great event to finish off the season....options...options...
