I dunno what epic means anymore. Some people use 3hrs as the measure. Some people use 12hrs as a guideline. Some might consider pedalling the 45lb rig to the store an epic. Whatever floats your boat, as long as you're riding it don't matter.

But howsabout a single 18hr session spent playing all over this landscape?

Suh-weet! Looks like you guys did it in fine style no doubt. I assume it's in the States but whereabouts? What kind of elevations are you looking at? Thanks for the teaser. :D

I consider an epic staying on the bike for more than 30 minutes :lol:

And when the low lying ground gets too thick to see let alone navigate... Note the orange jersey and black Turner 5-Spot in the middle of the trees...

Make like an orangutan (that be you Page) and climb a tree to scout the landscape and get your bearings...

Way off the epic-o-meter for a city boy like me. I would be happy to just do the Triple Crown and head for a long, hot bath.

its a long ride if someone has to take a dump in the forest
its an epic if it has to be done twice

Ha, that's funny. I seem to remember talking about a double dump ride as a definition of a long day quite a while back.

The night before the ride I ate a double monster grease burger that had a couple hot dogs thrown in for good measure. Mmmm, E-coli and nitrates are the secret weapon for the all day go-go. Didn't see the other end of that slop in a bun until the day after and it looked more like it came out of a bag of charcoal :D
