There was a bike sweep (or two) and if people didn't arrive at the aid stations when they reasonably should have, volunteers were looking for them.Beckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10260238987157763316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707007344589561021.post-29084531345647378072015-06-30T16:24:37.479-06:002015-06-30T16:24:37.479-06:00What a crazy epic adventure!

I always ...Thank you for answering my questions. <br /><br />I always wondered how these things went down and what it was like. A bit like Survivor or some other reality-based show. Not sure I would have the fortitude to take on such an undertaking, especially given the conditions.<br /><br />I would be worried about getting lost out there, especially if the trail markings / directions aren't that great. That is always the worst feeling. The remoteness of that area is a bit unnerving as you aren't exactly near help.<br /><br />Thanks again for the write-up.Eddie Gaulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18151446665700309292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707007344589561021.post-28201708872210032162015-06-29T14:06:11.659-06:002015-06-29T14:06:11.659-06:00I mean, I honestly couldn't tell if other peop...I mean, I honestly couldn't tell if other people smelled, but I sure could smell myself :D The not shaving part was really the hardest of everything. I felt like a Yeti by the time I was done.
