This makes me nostalgic for 2011 (HOLY CRAP) when this gem was released.

If you're talking about Kelebaker to the 15, the FC 508 used to go down it in one of the last stages - about 400 miles in I think. It was brutal. It has been repaved fairly recently though. I've ridden it in the other direction a couple timesfrom Joshua Tree to Vegas and it's fine now.

I did the 200 on 100 in June of this year. It took us a few more hours than Ted but we did it. Definitely doing it again next year!

Did you feel like you were run over by a dump truck of awesomeness?
