I know they race cars up the mountain, has anyone tackled it on a bike?

Couldnt be any worse then any other TT race. Line the corners with hay bails, Id giv'er a try...I think.

Check out http://www.vcmc.ca/multimedia/multimedia.html for some in-car footage of the mountian course.

They raced bikes there years ago. In the early 80's a crash resulting in death ended it. I was there the year after and a friend showed me the corner it happened in. There was a tree with a tear still in it from the impact. 30 feet from the road and about 40 feet up its length. It was a high speed corner half way up the mountain. Looked nasty.
