Pcdv0044_800.jpg (112124 bytes) September 20, 2003--The folks from Quackcyclists outdid themselves again with the fourth edition of the Knoxville Double Century, and we outdid ourselves taking photos and video (yes, we actually culled a few photos from the ones we took).  Temps were on the hot side (98 degrees at lunch), but all in all another great ride--as we say, "Another day, another double century!"

The 195-mile course includes about 11,000-12,000 feet of climbing--most of it in the hills of Napa and Lake counties in Northern California.  Very low traffic, and very scenic.
