I would just rent a bike for the day. White Pine Touring is a Specialized shop. They had Epic EVOs to rent and the going rate is $125 a day. I’d call ASAP and reserve if you want to rent.
Jan’s is their sister shop a mile away and have Santa Cruz rentals.
Cole Sports is across the street from Jan’s (not sure what they have). Contender and Storm are also nearby but not in PC proper. Contender might have some Scott XC bikes and Storm had Pivot and Yeti last time I stopped in.
Good luck and as a fellow Brain owner, I love to hate the Brain.
All you guys riding have fun out there.
