Fall Foliage Whiteface Uphill - 9/16/07

[steveyo]

Anyone in the Northeast US, think about this one, it should be gorgeous!

Sept 16, 2007 there's a fall foliage version of the race up Whiteface Mtn Veteran's Memorial Highway, in the beautiful Adirondack mountains of upstate New York. 8 miles, 3550 vertical feet of climbing. Yummy.

I've officially signed up, as of today, and there's always room for more. As they say, "it's eight miles, but there's only one hill!"

I prefer this version of a Whiteface race! This weekend!!!
Longest DH race in the east.
