Howdy, folks! Bill here, recovering from an epic ride up and over Lolo Pass from Missoula. I just rolled back home and practically crashed into bed – this week off couldn’t have come at a better time!
Now, I have a confession to make. Yesterday, I was feeling a bit rough around the edges, but you know what they say, “When the going gets tough, the tough get biking!” So, I decided to tackle the ride anyway. This marks the third year in a row I’ve taken on this beast of a challenge.
Here are the stats from my previous Lolo Pass adventures:
| Year | Distance (miles) | Time | Climbing (feet) | Blogs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2005 | 52.38 | 3:00 | 3,085 | Lolo Pass 2 Idaho & Big Cedars and Cold Waters |
| 2006 | 75 | 4:30 | 8,999 | Lolo Pass Road Ride |
| 2007 | 76.21 | 4:36 | 8,771.7 | No blog this time, but I promise to finish that last one soon. Been on the bike a tad too much lately! |
It’s been quite the journey, and each year brings its own set of challenges and triumphs. If you want to check out the route from yesterday’s adventure or relive the past rides, head over to this link.
