Okay so I stupidly wrote prophetically in the official Afton Notebook that I'd do 12 laps next year. well that will mean a few things. 3 laps in a row to start and 3 night laps before 1 am. then sleep til 6 am, do 3 laps before 11am. take 2 hours off and do 3 laps between 1-5pm. can this be done. i think it can be it will just be horrific.
things I learned this year.
- take a break at picnic table after shady lane
- make sure a meal is ready at each break time
- have bike workign 100% before leaving
- hit Afton, lutsen, elk river and others atleast 5 times before race
- practice riding more at night.
- make sure there is enough lights for 6 hours
- have pit crew
- salt tablets
- good night sleep
- Oreo goes to Cabin for weekend(so we can sleep upon return
- 2 way radios Faith, Mariza and MONTE will need to be pit crew
