    Nice work! I was the neon yellow guy only a couple ahead of you for the first half. Only gotcha by 62 seconds. What a brutal day.

      Oh yeah, I got pretty close to you on Psycho Path until I made a cool slide. :-) Great riding!

      hey neon yellow guy, that was a nifty pass on lap #1 to pass the guy in the blue! I finished behind both of you at 1.52 in this race. It was fun, but 90 minutes of bike cleaning on Monday. Felt like a Monday during the cyclocross season!

    This looked intense, nice job! Those tires didn’t help for sure, I remember them from kettle last year. Great video!

    Great job in those conditions! The mud really robs you of your momentum. Especially on the climbs!

    30:35 Hope the "Blues Under the Bridge" was a motivator.

    very proper video, the way you labeled each trail. Very nice, even their stupid map doesn't provide the name of the trails.

    Awesome job, I did novice and learned so much for next year. Glad to see you pushing through all the mud. It was def one of the most difficult rides.

    I was in mens sport right before and it was a wild mess out there.

    Your videos have inspired me to get into racing (gravel) next season. This year I’m just doing the Door County Century ride.

      Yeah most of us had a little or no experience with mud as all trails are closed during wet conditions in midwest. The race was in SE Chicago suburbs, Palos Forest Preserve.
