Thanks for the really positive feedback, guys! It was a whirlwind of a weekend, and I'm still buzzing from the endorphins and adrenaline!!! EVERYTHING fell into place, and we had an amazing turnout, and everything I've heard & read points to people having a great day! In addition to what you've seen on flickr, there are some great pics linked to the IEBA's FB page that are worth checking out: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Inland-Empire-Biking-Alliance/156207984434074 The B&W ones from Kevin F are just perfect!
A good chunk of the riders were Rivendell people, and they were perfectly suited for the day. I'm biased, but I think they may have had the best time out there! It's intentionally a mix of riders and bikes to stir the pot and and let the different tribes do some cross-pollination! I had input on the 50k route, but Mark F figured out a way to get a LOT of dirt patches connected together for the 100k portion. The 100k is probably 50-60% dirt, the 50k was significantly lower, maybe 30-40%??? I had it figured out at one time, but we changed routes SEVERAL times over the previous two weeks :-) We have every intention of having a third event next year, so if this looks like something you'd like to jump on and take advantage of the moderate SoCal winter/spring, set your alarms for March 2016!
