Dickie Scramble 2014: 75 miles 4/26/14


75 miles of incredible roads, potluck checkpoint, great food/drinks/gathering place at the finish line.

Registration is going to run a little bit differently...

In order of preference-

Option A:  join "Dickie Scramble 2014" Facebook event
Option B:  send an email to cyclocarbon@gmail.com stating that you would like in
Option C:  show up

Do not be afraid to just show up, but please do use one of the other options if/when you have decided to attend.  The "pre-registered" rider numbers will be used to let the JJ Tailgator's know what to expect.  They are letting us use an incredible space where even 200-300 riders could gather after the ride and eat great food.  They will match their wait staff to my estimate based social media and email registrants.

This is a no sponsors, no money, ride.  The only monetary transactions that will take place will be between hungry riders and the huddle.  I want nothing from you but to force you to ride the hills I train on.

Click here for tentative route.  This event was a late comer to the gravel thing.  I've ridden in more than a few and chose this venue because it is the best...  best and most challenging roads, best place to gather after.

Start time/location-  9:30 am rollout be there between 7:30 and 9 to check in.  Come early and do not park downtown Elgin the schools have been kind enough to offer their lots for our use, there will be a map in my final update.  We ride from JJ Tailgator's right in the middle of Main St.

Check point-  This will be potluck once again-  bring something good to share, load it in my truck at the start.  Homemade things are always a hit, but anything you might want to eat or drink in the middle of an 80 mile ride is great.

Questions?
