TT Hellclimb for Cancer: June 2

click to visit websiteThis event notice comes via Matt Surch, from the Tall Tree gang.

Tall Tree's Martin Kellen is riding the Ride to Conquer Cancer June 12-13th, so we're throwing down an opportunity to climb for the cause. We'll meet at the Gate (Gamelin) at 6pm sharp, and roll to the base of Fortune together. From there we'll TT to the T. Being a Tall Tree thang, we'll can call this a Tall Tree Time Trial to the T, which makes T6. This is a low key, funraiser for Cancer research, so lets all get out there and lay down our best.

There will definitely be a fixed gear category, so if you've got one its time to start thinking about your gearing. I vow to be there on my Steelwool Limited, running a 44x16. See the blog for additional details on categories.
