Confirmed! 11/5 - 11/9 is my conference (Wild Horse Pass) and I'll
probably move to my SIL's (DT Scottsdale) place for a couple of days
following. I'm sending the pig bike (Id) this year. Definately want
to hit Sedona again, among other things.

You'll be close to South Mountain Park so I suggest at least one day there.
Then after you go to the SIL's shoot for McDowell Mtn Park. As for
Sedona.........?

I'd recommend the Racer-x for everything. Lighter and all around better
bike.

I thought about the R-X, but the extra travel would be nice in Sedona.
Heck, the Ellsworth is still lighter than that K2 monster I rented last
year with the screwed up cable routing.

I send you a email as it gets closer

Extra travel = harder to pedal/more energy spent, especially at altitude
(yes, Sedona is at altitude) IMO.

Look forward to the rides.

Well _low_ altitude, maybe.

Compared to where Mitch is coming from (just above sea level), Sedona is at
altitude albeit moderate, still enough gain to cause one to breath much
harder than at sea level.

Altitude!)

Hey, I'm at 150' above sea level!!! Saturday I'm going to Jim Thorpe
(Class III dam release on the Lehigh for kayaking) where I'll be at
1100'! I better watch out for a Pulmonary Embolism. 😉

I think you mean pulmonary edema (or if you're British oedema) ;-), but if
it's an embolism you want, have at it.

Enjoy !

that's not even up to where my current house in Phoenix sits (~1700'😉 then
there's Shaw Butte with a summit some 550' higher right next door.

Maybe if he held his breath all the way from sea level he could give
himself one.

I had the Pulmonary part correct. What do I know. I'm not a doctor,
although I have played one on radio. Really.

Don't get Matt started, I don't think he can see down to 7K from his
neighborhood.
Me, I can see to 6.5K, but only if I strain my neck.
