New Fastest Timberline Climb
Team Tartan recorded the FASTEST time split from Government Gamp to Timberline Lodge, EVER for any team. Covering the final 6 miles in 29 minutes averageing approximately 12.4 mph. Take that "Finnegan's Discovers Toy Sharks".

Beat Recumbents to the Top
In fairness, yes the four man recumbant team, RAO speed wagon started two hours back. But we figure the "Quest" is worth at least two. So yet again, the uprights are on top. In our opinion you guys are amazing, we can't pedal the 'bent.
