Are you ready for a good time?
You never really know what you're going to get when you open that ziploc bag. Some will take off at the word go assuming Eric will send us up Black Mountain once again, but I will always open my passport and scan it for vital information before I turn a pedal in anger. You never know if this will be the year that Eric throws some kinda curveball at us.
Opening that baggie is almost like reliving a childhood Christmas past, except the presents are pain, hunger, fatigue, mishap, weather, elevation, distance, navigational challenges, and a quest for immortal glory.
Merry Christmas.
For all you folks that are gonna be at the start tomorrow I'm sorry to tell you, but there is no Santa Claus. PMBAR is just a little bit of hell that has seeped up through the cracks between the mountains and streams in Western North Carolina looking to crush your soul and pulverize your flesh into tasty burrito ingredients for next year's race.
You've been warned.

Late Edit: How about this for PMBAR weather? Severe has such a cool ring to it. We should stop calling mountain biking an "extreme sport" and start using the term "severe sport" instead.
I'm so digging this.
