Monkey Knife Fight 2026. 75 miler or GTFO

[iman29]

You said 8 hours on Saturday and I thought/hoped you were joking.
This was last to year, I'm sure there was an hour or more of stopped time on top of this.
I'll hope to finish under 8 I guess

Of the 5 of us I was the slowest one last year and the 4 of you certainly could have finished sooner in terms of moving/elapsed time if you weren't all gracious enough to wait for me. We all finished pretty close together which was totally awesome ( including circling the parking lot to make it 50 ;-)

So taking all that into account plus the horrible weather my ride still shows 5.5 hours elapsed time. I certainly hope we are not out there for 8 hours but I will not be focused on finishing in a certain amount of time, I will be focused on finishing.

I'm guessing 5:30- 6 hours moving time.

Fresh wax for Saturday
Also if you have a sram rival flat top chain throw it in the garbage and get a kmc flat top.

I hear there's a lot of litter at MKF. @Cole should also search the trash heap for his friends.

So are we going to try and coordinate some kind of meetup, preferably post ride?

It'll be a preride meet, and probably roll out together.
If we roll out together, you will finish way before some of us on the longer one.
I'll send you my number.

I hope there is still food when we get back.
2019 they left before I returned

Lol, I'll take that bet. I'm feeling slow AF, so distance may be the equalizer 😆

I'm doing the 50 with some of the SITR people
