thanks for the fast reply, good luck wishes, and the inspiration for doing the ride in the first place.
one more quick question -- do you have any recollection of temperature when you started v. temperature at the summit? I've heard rule of thumb there is -2 degrees per 1k feet ... so if it's 75 at the ocean that'd be 47 at the top(+wind chill). Does that square with your experience?
