What a sweet ride. If you didn't make it, don't miss it next year. I absolutely tore it up out there and loved it! Not too many frills, but a nice log sleeved T and plenty of rest stops.

Yeah, had a blast- had great weather with the minor exception of some wind coming back in- I did the 35 mile route- farthest I've ever ridden on a bike.
Keep in mind that it COULD have been rainy or cold, so there's no guarantee that every year is this good.

Heres a quick vid my pal Mark took of me at several points, nothing exciting since he couldn't video while I was racing along at 32+, , but most people don't get to see a lowracer in action.

Photos are now posted on the bicycle stuff page, although I seem not to have made the cut.

It appears that photos are from the first half of the 35-mile route- last ones appear to be on 377 heading back south. Last rest area shown was at the corner of 377 and 455.

Yeah the bike-stuff owner, John Sadowski, is a recumbent guy and a very nice fellow.
