Good job on the win! It's a shame that they are paving most of the hill which is due to be complete 2012.

I hope I could make a race before all the dirt is gone.

Be prepared to be up early everyday on the hill by 3am practice starts at like 5:30 and is over by 9.. Brings warm clothes if you are going to go towards the top it rains and snows every year...Dont drink beer as the effects are much greater at 14,000 feet

I dunno Mike... not very impressive... a semi posted a faster time!!


jajaja I'M JUST KIDDING!!! thats is awesome! I love seeing dezert trucks on pavement!

I wouldn't exactly call that truck a "semi"

How much of the climb is now paved. I remember when most of it was dirt. Are you racing it this year Mike?
