Well, the 2007 edition, which also happened to be the 5th anniversary of the Soggy, occurred Saturday, September 1st. This was the best field ever in that all the riders completed the ride back to Hope before midnight. Twenty riders started the 109 mile ride ( with 9,000 feet of elevation gain ) and 17 rode the 109 beautiful miles back to Hope !
