The time is here and hopefully my legs and lungs are ready for the journey. I am heading out Friday morning on my way up to take on my first Lumberjack. My goal is to finish. This will be the longest ride I have completed on a mountain bike, let alone a SS. I plan to just ride an easy pace so I do not burn out early.

Thanks to Deuce, he said he will be up there taking some pictures and hopefully handing me a beer when mile 100 is complete.

My ride:
Specialized Rockhopper 29er frame
Kings laced to Delgados
XTR 960 cranks chopped and polished
Home Brewed Components chainring/cog (32/18)
SRAM 991 cross-step chain
WTB Weirwolf 2.55 up front and a WTB Nano on the back (tubeless)
BB7 brakes
eggbeater SL
WTB Rocket V Race saddle
Ergon GX1 grips

Gear:
mysinglespeed bibs
mysinglespeed jersey (probably long sleeve)
Shimano m310 shoes

Fuel:
Hammer FIZZ tablets in the bottle
Hammer Anti Fatigue caps and Race Caps
Hammer gel
Stinger gel and waffles
Hammer perpetuem solids

and lots of beer when I finish!

I wish I was going to be there riding.
