The first climb was pretty much all dirt and mud.

There was a couple other hiking trails throughout the course. One of them was full of rocks and couldn't have been more than 18 inches wide.

Brad Ross happened to be at the bottom, and I said it was pretty sketchy. He told me it was nothing.

If you want to re-post them, all I ask is photo credit.

Thanks for the pics!

Here's me all buggered up at the top... I was so warm by this time that I might have well been cycling naked.
