Man that was impressive…. You guys were flying… the riders you caught,,were they from other age groups? I heard to race too I had pay 329? Is this for real? The last few kilometres ( because let’s face it, the universal measurement is metric) was intense… that guy that attacked on the left side….wasn’t sure he’d make that final corner, shit he flew in there!😳 thanks for the upload, been waiting for says to see the course. Any idea where it will be next year?
Thanks @lazlo2511. Our race had 3 age groups. 50-54, 55-59 & 60-64. We all started together, but as you saw, I was in a crash 12 miles in, so I was probably close to last place. The riders I passed were all from those age groups. I don’t remember how much I paid, but $329 was the last minute price. If you register earlier, it’s cheaper. Worth the price either way. USAC cycling National Championships events are top notch! Next year will be at the same venue. They run the same for 2 years then change to another state. That guy that came up my inside almost beat me. We had the same finish time. Hard to see in the video, but we were a group of 15 to 20 riders sprinting to the line. Glad you enjoyed the video.
“Could you be loved,” and then drops the start on “don’t let them fool ya”. Well played DJ.
😝thanks for the comments
Nice ride! Congrats on the placing and thanks for sharing!
Thank you
Wow! That was fantastic. Great ride. Y'all are beasts! Great video.
Thank you!
First time that I ever saw lines painted on a gravel road!!
Lol, thanks for the comment
Awesome video Todd!
Thank you Patrick!
I am actually nursing a pulled muscle in my right shoulder, from all that heavy bottle clutching...I kid you not! 🤣
I used a hydration pack for the first 2/3’s of the race. Hope you’re feeling better.
Nice job! Confused though, as this wasn't the 88 mile course, results show a 4 hour ride time.
I raced in the 55 to 59 year old age group. This was on the 88 mile course. My race time was 4 hours and 35 minutes.
Gotcha. What camera were you using?

Wohoo, lets go.....
Thanks David, hope you’re doing well.
Bike manufacturers do wind tunnel tests, and then race organizers have plastic numbers hanging from the handlebars LOL.
Ya, I agree. I think they should use roadie transponders instead of mtb # plates. But here we are!
💪👏💪
Thank you

lol 😝 my wife noticed the same thing.
Long white socks are super ugly. How did that become a thing? So says old guy missing the 70’s and 80’s.
I know, they look ridiculous. I hope they helped.
Lol, I was wearing white shoes and white socks as well. Gotta be one of the cool kids, lol 😝
