Michigan Mountain Mayhem 100k Route
Call out for the route in Boyne City area went out earlier in the week and I decided to do it for something different. About 4400 feet of climbing, so it was far hillier than anything in our area. A lot like Maine, actually. Good group, though I forgot my bottles at the hotel. One of the guys gave me a bottle, so I drank that and refilled at the gas station stops and it worked out fine. There were some fast descents and some really sharp uphills. Nothing was really more than 4-5', but "the Wall" in East Jordan was very wall-like. I was grinding out of the saddle in my lowest gear and it was slow. Good chatting with the guys. I wanted to do the road race next year, but I guess they have discontinued the event, sadly.
