O.k. I say you go for it! Here is the race course Map and I highlighted the two most muddy sections; the first one is in Major Mike and the other one is towards the last mile of the lap. AkaGc the straight line between the Start and Finish mark is the big gravel climb that unfortunately you will climb it twice.  ;D Good Luck again!  |

Please let us congratulate Viking for making the podium again (3rd place) and for AkaGC for finishing the race!  BTW, I'm proud of my Boo, he did the whole second lap with one break and still managed to finish the race. He was so determined not to DNF again!  With bent rotor: Brakes hanging on the handlebar:

That was some serious fun. I had decided to be at least top 7 going into the single track after the prologue. Halfway through the prologue it felt really good and I moved up from 8th or 9th to 4th place. So I got in to the single track as 4th. I picked number three and after that I was tagging with number two for a while. The leader was long gone.... My brakes started getting really bad towards the end of the first lap so the two guys I had just passed caught up with me and we were pretty tight for a while. One of the guys gave up so I was in third, but unfortunately I lost ground on every descent and could not make it all up on the climbs. I finished 30 seconds behind  Congrats Moe, that was no chicken s**t ;D ;D |

Hey Viking 4th place still Great! Sorry I misinformed the tribesmen, I was just so excited for you to tell everyone when my Boo mentioned it to me that you got 3rd! I did get third. I meant I was only 30 seconds away from getting second place. A lot of people had brake problems because of the mud today. |
