Good luck to everybody attending!

Sadly, this years 4-Kings thread was a pretty lame read (barely any trash talk) so...

Keep an eye on that Cam O'Donnell guy... I hear he cuts the tape Herbold style!

You'll need a fleece, neoprene booty covers, balaclava and thick gloves. It gets chilly

And Drew: Connor dropped out, so I can't trash talk him.

It'll probably get down to around 10 degrees. Although you'll soon get hot when you're trying to get away from the person 10 seconds behind you with their magic shine burning a hole in the back of your head!

I thought it would be cool to have a green glow-stick under my seat for the ride. Then when I finished the ride and was about to go home I noticed I had some nice new green accents down my seat tube, cables, shock and bottom bracket. Good job it washed easily with the hose!

Boom caught me on yummy after starting 2 min behind, And tailed me for half of foreplay before he put the hammer down and I slashed open my rear tire one of the rock rolls. Now I am firmly near the bottom of the GC for tomorrow. Bb on the way out, some new squeaks and a borrowed High Roller. I had 221 points at the beginning of stage 3 and easily 7 th in my group on the way up yummy, probably another 100 for the afternoon.

I am loving the marshals and this race is awesome. Tomorrow will be wild, with or without rain.
Good luck all.
