Mitch Miller > "At 3 a.m. we started again from Golden Canyon, as the last rider in the race." 7 a.m. Sunday, Mile 300; About to begin the climb up Jubilee Pass and out of Death Valley. Panamint Mtns. beyond.
Mitch Miller > "After 6pm I had the crew follow behind me in the dark. Kind of annoying hearing a my car in first gear almost stalling because I was going so slow. I must have been passed by everyone going up Towne Pass, mostly relay teams with fresher legs than I had after 200 miles into the race. A lot of other solo riders passed me up as well. I definitely didn't have my climbing legs. I was struggling on this climb quite a bit, and a few times noticed my odometer say 3 mph. Very demoralizing since I can walk and push my bike almost as fast, so I did that for a few miles."
Mitch Miller > 6:43 p.m. Saturday, elevation 1,580', Highway 190, heading for 4,956' Towne Pass; a 10 mile climb mostly 6-10% grade, up to 13%.
