The route wound up towards Idaho City with riders battling a stiff headwind during the first climb to Hilltop. The support vehicles drove ahead to the designated transfer stations where the racers for the next stage were preparing. My first stage was from Idaho City to Moores Creek Summit. At the transfer station, [Shea Andersen] pointed me out to his teammate, whom I also happened to know, as the guy to track down on the next stage. The trash talking had begun.
