- For info on the ride, send an SASE to Spartanburg Freewheelers, Box 6171,
- Spartanburg, SC 29304.

- I have done this ride twice (after swearing I would only do it once).
- Last year they limited resgistration to the first 700 entrants (and
- some idiots on a tandem who sent a nice letter begging to be tortured:)
-
- Amazingly, registration fills up early. It may already be full.
-
- I wrote a ride report (surprise! surprise!) on our experiences dragging
- the tandem up this wonderful mountain last spring. I'll send a copy
- to Ertugrul, but if anyone else is interested, let me know, and I'll
- send you a copy too.
-
- Good luck to all who attempt it!
