[Ted S.]

I will be heading up to Pisgah this Sunday to ride some of the ORAMM course. Kitsuma>Star gap>Curtis creek rd> some pavement on the Parkway> Heartbreak and back around. Self supported ride with a fair bit of climbing. Some Local Pisgah area Sorba guys will be leading the way.

I am supposed to go out of town Sunday, but I am trying to see if I can push it back a day. How many miles do you think this ride is?

[Ted S.]

The course is 63 miles, So I GUESS we are cutting it down to around 40+/- miles. All the pavement from Old fort is cut out as well as the gravel on the far side of the parkway, Also cutting out the second climb and descent of Kitsuma.
