Sharing some pix from the event. Conditions were not great, but at least it didn't rain.
Starting temp was 32 °F. High temp was 48 °F.
Winds varied at 15-25 mph, and I climbed 10,400', so it was a tough 114 miles for me.







A local coffee shop was offering free espresso shots to Dairy Roubaix riders about 85 miles into the 112 mile route. I also had a homemade granola bar.

Here was a nice little single track next to a stream. Too bad it was a wrong turn!

They decided to build the road around this rock, instead of through. Bike for scale.

But it quickly turned to this. gravel roads going steeply (6-9%) up into the trees.
