Because of the downpour Frank and BA told us we should probably descend the mountain on Bruner Rd even though it is off limits to bikes. We roade that down to the rail trail and then to the finish.

OCourse out of Mitchell camp. Had trouble with the first CP and called BA to verify location. She confirmed and we reattacked a few times until finally realizing what the issue was. Then knocked out the next couple CPs. Odyssey had trouble with these same CPs.
Walked through the start of the ocourse and Frank decided to follow us with the camera. It was nice to have his company. He left us as we left to attack the two CPs on the other side of WV.
We had to leave one CP out on the course. Not sure we could have gotten it and finished on time.
As we returned on foot to Mitchell Camp we saw Odyssey was on their way to the finish on bikes. We therefore knew they hadn't captured as many CPs as us. As long as we finished on time we would win.
Just before we got back to camp it started downpouring and storming.
