Sounds perfect! š¤Ŗ
Conversely, I havenāt run at all since last Sat.
OK AmZof peeps!!! Under 24 hours to go!!
Itās a beautiful day here in Ulstertucky, 50 degrees and sun is shining. āļø
Some bike sprites went out and marked the worst of the bike gremlins, from the stop sign turning onto Butterville Rd at the bottom of the Mohonk descent, to the 180 turn onto Upper Granite after the end of the Million Dollar View descent section.
Notes: the sandy section on the L hand decreasing radius turn up top on the Mononk descent is clear!
Back to its normal level of terrifyingness. š±
The rough patch at the stop sign is now very clearly marked, you can either cut inside (very tight) or swing around outside (recommended)
The holes under the bridge on Butterville are clearly marked.
Only marked the first batch of crap starting right after W Trapps Lot (this is just below the Steel Bridge) - itās a cheese grater there for a while, so just keep your head up and either stay on shoulder, or take the lane if safe to do so.
Thereās some rough stuff juuust after you start descending following the Minne climb, but now the worst is marked, and youāre not up to speed there anyway.
The nasty one(s) by Jenny Lane lot are marked.
Itās after the first āpower rollerā, just a bit after you start going down again.
There are 3 in a row, all marked - if you hit them now, you need to go hang out with Mr Magoo.
A bunch of cheese grater stuff in Kerhonkson, itās almost all where a cars R tires would roll, so stay on shoulder or take the lane.
Only the most egregious stuff is marked, but it goes on and off thru there for a while.
Nothing after the 180 turn onto Upper Granite is marked, because I was nearly out of paint & time, and didnāt recall anything nasty thru there.
Related: I look like I have early-onset Skittles Pox, a bunch of small orange splatters on my arm from shaking the can.
Donāt know the status of the nasty potholes on the dirt road just below the ranger station at the entrance.
The Preserve is supposed to fix those, but we shall see....
(I do have a tiny bit of paint left, so Iāll mark them tomorrow if theyāre still there.)
Looks like itās gonna be a great day for racing tomorrow.
Game on!
