Tour Divide 2010 Letter of Intent

Tour Divide 2010 Letter of Intent

I’ll be there for TD ’10, its just my kind of fun.  With all my heart I’m looking forward to the liberty of a simple goal, chasing peace under a crisp dawn, developing a fine patina of scuz, and rediscovering the merits of the Little Debbie.
When you’re sorting out who’s who in Banff, I’m the 6′-7″ bearded guy on a really big Niner.  Have a fun spring.

So, what’s the Tour Divide?  A 2750 mile self-supported mountain bike race from Banff, Canada to Antelope Wells, New Mexico, on the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route.  80% dirt Forest Service roads and a bit of everything else.  No support, no caches, no teams, no stages.  June 11, 2010, 10AM.

I’ll be carrying a SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger, so that you’ll be able to track my location on the Leaderboard.

Want to go for a training ride?  It will be a long one!
