As the sunrise is getting later the intercept is getting harder. Some chasing will be necessary this time (I expect to catch at the water stop), but it should be worth it (assuming it will be possible to see the sun from up there given the cloudiness and wetness these days; at least the rains mean the dirt will be hard-pack).

I'll also branch off and do the EPA dirt including the fun singletrack bit, but that's optional.

No +1s and I'll decide on the day of what I'll do.

Never done a DSB, but the FFFF chasing setup sounds interesting.

Can I expect the dirt to be of the road bike friendly kind?

Yes. I've done it on my road bike many many times and never had any incidents. I will be on my road bike, even.

OK, +1 then.

An overdue route, I suppose.

Yeah I'm a total dirt wimp and I'm fine on my road bike on DSB :)

+1! Would San Jose and Randall be a good intercept?

Sure. The route looks like this (though a different intercept route tomorrow after descending MSB): https://www.strava.com/activities/384787692

Thanks all for coming! We didn't catch them today, but it's really about the chase, right?

Also I saw lots of top 10s on their strava tracks so we probably never had a chance.
