Now mind you my entry won’t be nearly as lengthy as my fathers recap, but I will try my hardest to give you accurate details.

We managed to get to the start of the ride with about 10 minutes to spare, which was amazing because I got out of bed only 15 minutes before that. As the time was clicking away, I observed that it probably wasn’t my brightest idea to drink coffee before the ride. I was already getting cramps in my stomach and we haven’t even started yet. Once we got on the bike and started though, the pain slowly but surely dissipated.

So this was supposed to be a recap of the Assault on Mount Mitchell. A few things conspired against us which I will explain later. We managed to get to the Spartanburg Auditorium at 6:10 AM. There were a lot of riders there but for some reason it just didn’t look as crowded as last year. When the ride got underway at 6:30 AM it was already warm and the group took off rather slowly.
