I made it to the finish at 9:51 with just 9 minutes to spare!! |
Sorry for the bad photo I was so tired, I didn't get many photos of the Finish The feeling at the Finish was electric and I was mighty glad to be here |
A big thanks to the many Santa Rosa Cycling Club's great volunteers for soaking us down and keeping us as cool as possible in the horrific conditions. The Terrible Two has the reputation of being the toughest Double in the United States. After ten years of comparatively cool weather, the Terrible Two showed how tough it can really be. Congratulations to everyone who started this ride, a big congrats to those who made it 109 miles to lunch, and a huge congrats who ventured out into the blast furnace on Skaggs Spring Road. From there to the finish, it all depended upon how well your body could handle the 110+ Degree heat while climbing those brutally steep roads and still stay upright!! I tip my hat to all who rode the historic 2003 Terrible Two. |
