Rode to Hell Gravel Race - Fat Bike Style

Fun Mad Cow road trip to Michigan. What a difference compared to last year,  450+ racers this year. Wow! Sunshine with temps 60 at the start. 43 mile Fat Bike. Josh, Nick, & Tebow joined me. We started on a grass two track then on to gravel. We were held upa bit then chased for a few miles. I got on to the front group. I needed 8-10 seconds breather then the group split. I missed the boat tho. They rolled away. I worked with 4 other guys for 8-10 miles then a huge group of 25+ caught us. It was a huge pack all the way to the finish. I hammered the grass track to the finish. 346 avg watts on that section. Yeah! I took 3rd place at 20.1 mph avg. 1st & 2nd were legit guys. Bummed I missed the split, but I felt good. Good race! Sean won the 50 -59 in the 70 miler including 8th overall. Josh, Nick & Tebow were 4th, 5th, & 6th in my Fat Bike class. We went through Hell during the race. We went back to check out the gtown & ift shop. Fun stuff. Great job fellas!

Beautiful Fall day with sunshine & 70 degrees. 3 laps on the Mad Cow Ramble Farmersville course. 1,100 ft. of climbing. Steady tempo ride. I felt better than yesterday. We will see how tomorrow gies. There's some fast fat bike dudes registered. No matter the result I'm looking forward to racing & having fun! Mooooo!

Fatty Friday

 The rain rolled through leaving very Fall like weather. Low 60's, cloudy with no humidity. Short Fundalia fatty ride. New sealant did the trick plugging some small leaks on front tire after Sunday's ride. I put in 3 intervals. Good efforts even though I wasn't that motivated. haha I love the short segments around Demmitt. Still need 2 seconds for that KOM. One corner always gets me somewhere on that KOM. haha Good efforts prepping for Sunday. 

Venga!

Fatty Hayes Thursday

 

Hello October! Haven't been back to Hayes since April. The trails were in bad shape then. Well, still downed trees, but it wasn't overgrown. Fat bikes were perfect with all the leaves & sticks down. Summer day at 86 degrees. Josh & I had a fun ride.  We might join the trail team next year. It's my fav place to ride out of town. I've missed it. Hopefully go back this month.

B-Ville Wednesday

Wow the last day of September. Fast & busy month. I was bummed to miss so many races due to my gig schedule, but that's been the story of the year too. Fun 25 miler from Brookville. Harvest is in full swing. Slowly the corn is coming down. 1 moth until the time change. I'm happy Fall is here. I took out the Emonda. I hit some aegments with 3 KOM's. Sunset was nice. October tomorrow. Mooooo!

Venga!
