[RC] Virginia City 100 Ride Photos - Dream Weaver

http://enduranceridestuff.com/2009_virginia_city/virginiacity100.html First few photos are from a pre-ride on Friday. The actual ride photos start with the photos taken in the dark on Main Street in Virginia City in front of the Delta Saloon. First loop out of camp is 55 miles with a vet check at 24 miles at Geiger grade and another at 39 miles at Washoe Lake. You'll see Washoe in the photos plus Jumbo grade, the SOB's, and then back over into VC. Then out for another loop half as far as the first out of camp then back for another check (two hour holds in camp), then out for the last 22 miles with a vet check and hold at 92 miles. Total hold time was 3:15. I hadn't done the ride in so long that I didn't really notice the new longer or harder trail (as others have said) that was changed this year. Winning time was 15:11. It seemed like it was the more conservative riders that completed this year. I know I kept moving up in placing throughout the ride without passing anybody. I enjoyed every minute of it and didn't mind being out there for close to 24 hours, by the time I got back into camp and vetted through. Ride story coming soon....
