I dragged myself up to Cable yesterday. The first 6 hours wasn’t too bad, but the last 4 hours got long. Bill relieved me some driving. I woke up today not feeling much better. I had thought/hoped this stomach thing would have passed as quickly as it came. Doesn’t seem that it how it is going. I had planned on riding the whole Chequamegon course today, but that ain’t happening. I think Bill and Karl are still going to do it. This might be the first time in modern history that I haven’t ridden the course before the race. I really like it, so I’m really missing out. Maybe another day of bed rest might help some.
How wet is the course? This year is going to be a screamer without the Berkie Trail! Best of luck to you in the race and your stomach. Hoping for no rain on Saturday, 🙂
when I die, I want to come back as your dog. What a great life he has.
I’ve heard pretty wet. Also, looks like about 5 miles of Birkie Trail taken out – similar to 2014. The first section off Rosies and horrifying section after the Fire Tower are still in.
I have not done the race since 93. How is the course different now?
Sometimes food poisoning that lingers can be cleared quickly with Cipro. Just sayin
