First of several organized rides

I'm really looking forward to this event, Horribly Hilly Hundreds on Jun 14, 2014. Some of the Spring City Spinners (who registered as a group) got selected after the lottery registration process. There will be an estimated 1300 total riders that day, with options to do 100K, 150K and 200K -with a range of ~6,000 to ~10,000 ft of climbing, depending on the distance you choose.

It's held in a region of Wisconsin called the Driftless area, which was untouched by glacial activity, so it retains a rugged beauty and some obviously Horrible Hills. This will be one of three events that I'm looking at doing this year, all in that general area. The other two are: Dairyland Dare and the other is The Wright Stuff.

Well, I better start looking at a training plan if I'm going to be ready for that kind of climbing that early in the season.

Safe riding all!
