erik's spring cup.













So I went and did it... a mountain bike race that is, and it was a really cool experience. The race was the Erik's Spring Cup. It was about 10 miles of dirt single track with only one obstacle. The whole race took about 48 minutes. I came in 4th in my age group and 48 out of 125 overall.

By far this is the highest I have ever finished in anything. At least I'm in the top half! A first for me. All kidding aside this was a pretty big win for me yesterday.

I would have done better but I wrecked twice. I did a full superman on one of them. It cost me 20 or 30 spots in my wave that I had to work my way back through... all that traffic took time and cost me overall positions. Note to self try not to wreck..

I am defiantly going to do one of these again.
