My question is , 1 Mile Mt Bike , is not very far . Is that up the Mt down the Mt across the , etc I guess I'm curious what type of terain are we talikg here , same for the Snow shoe although that is not as Important.

Gee, this sounds kind of fun. Splat are you thinking of doing this?

This does sound like a blast. They should lengthen it and offer a team class...run it like a relay....Kind of like the Granite Man.

Looks like I have to travel that day.

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Depending on what you have to ride . if it is ride up the Mt, probably not, that will be mostly a push fest . If it is down the Mt , Now were talking :D, the Snow Shoe , doesn't matter to Me , I think I'd actually like that to be up the Mt .

1 mile bike really is not that much unless it is an Up/down hill run.

also Have to see what the other plans Wifey has for weekend .
