Shenandoah Mountain 100 Course Clean UP!

Rolled the moto around the fireroads long into the darkness giving the course the triple check. Missed a HUGE black bear by inches up near Camp Todd. I can't even describe how close it was. The first bear sighting was a little cub. He was sooo cute as he stopped, turned, got up on his hind legs to look at me, dropped and ran off. Just missed the rain as I hit Reddish Knob to grab the "Caution, Wolf Ridge and Lynn trails below this area are being used by Bicycles on Sunday" sign at the top of Timber Ridge. Man I love those signs - thanks Branch for making them!!

Back to the Stokesville Campground to take trash to the dump and finish cleaning up!

Iron Mountain 100K - NC rocks the race

Looks like North Carolina reigned over VA and TN on a super fun backcountry route in Mount Rogers National Recreation. Damascus, Virginia not only has one of Virginia's favorite trails, the Creeper trail, but it is also centraly located amoung some of the best singletrack the Southern region has to offer.
