On the way down, I hit 45.6 mph on dirt!!!!! Top gear is 34x11 and it spins out around 30 mph. Maybe with a 44t chainring I could hit 50. It's the steepest, smoothest bit of dirt road in the county.
Base pack weight for the hiking portion was 7.8 lbs, including a full length 19 oz Big Agnes Aircore pad. A switch to a Kooka Bay air pad could save about 12 oz which could then be utilized for a bit more clothing and a cook kit. One of these days I might get around to making an alcohol stove....
Anyway, it was a refreshing, relaxing weekend with great friends and great flowers.
