I DEFINITELY put this on my Bucket List after seeing Fabien Barel's bike check last week. This looks incredible! I entered TransRockies twice and have been to Provence, so.... how do I sign up???
I'd take my Diamondback MIssion in a heartbeat. 66 RC2X up front, Hammerschmidt, and a dropper post - perfect!

that's one cool event. Now the question is what bike do I bring? 29er, 26er, 4" travel, 6"travel, hardtail... ha! I'm so confused!!!

super-d vs epic xc. the TP stages were all sub 1hr & downward oriented (~4-5hrs total over 7 days). bc bike race is way too much work. i'm all over the scenic alpine rip followed by wine, cheese & baguette stages.

If Mark Weir say it is one of his best...
