El Paso Puzzler 50 Mile MTB
El Paso, TX • Jan 15 2023 https://my.raceresult.com/228170…A very tough 50 mile mountain bike in the Franklin Mountains on the outskirts of El Paso. I think this is the toughest 50 mile mountain bike race due to the technical terrain and you are constantly going up or down. I rode the course with Pile Simpson my Cape Epic partner this year.
Jan Bear: 6h 32m 17s, 24/36, Men 60+
There were only 36 finishers of the 63 starters. The last finisher was at 9:16:50.
