Well, we made Lucy's slide show. This is a tough ride. Lots of steep hills and rocks all over the place.

She does such a nice job with her slide shows . She did a super one for the Rides of March too . I didn't think to ask her if I could post that one . She also writes the story of her ride to go along with it .

This ride is in Washoe Valley south of Reno. The ridecamp is 4,600 feet elevation and you probably go over 6,800 feet.

Maz, Peter could better list them than me but you would need to come over for about 6 months and you could do a lot of rides . Within an hour of this one I think there must be 6-10 rides ( I can think of 6 and know there are more )
