A very rocky 11 mile loop just a few miles east of downtown Del Norte, CO at the Quarry Trails. There was about 1000 feet of climbing each lap but the rock is what made this race hard!
Same course as last year! It sure seemed tougher! A true mountain bike course with 2400 feet of climbing in a 14.5 mile race. There was also so moderately technical sections.
Left elbow injury.
About 5 minutes slower than last year! 5th place in the group of 19 men in the 55+ age group.
A very tough 33 mile course with a little bit of everything, sand, baby head rock climbs, steep twisty descents, volcanic rock and finally some flowy sections.
The only women in the Expert race!
