    Yep, they finished right behind one of my "buddies" son, Trevor. Pretty cool that these guys are out there racing with the regular folk! I noticed Victor Sheldon in the results as well...

    Even the Beg 50 class is fast - I can't break out of the bottom 10 - I do better each week but I guess everyone else does as well.

    But like you said "It's still fun"

    To dovetail onto my roadie post about pulling: After he suffered a mechanical, Team Smitty was kind enough to pull me back into the race at last night's OTH, catching and passing two guys in my group. 3/4 around the course? Now THAT was a pull. I owe you a beer, Steve!

    Fun start with the Sport 3 (40-49) class. After turning left, crossing the lake, and heading right down toward the single track, the entire pack of 30+ riders veered left instead of continuing toward the single track. As soon as everyone realized we hit a dead end, all 30+ of us turned around and headed back to the course. Some folks bringing up the rear got to taste what it's like being in the front for a change! :bang:

    With age comes wisdom--we 50+ didn't do that, lol! You guys must've still been way out in front as we didn't see that fiasco.

    David, you can buy me a beer anytime, but not for pulling you along. My race was done and it was a ton of fun riding with you. Another thing, you are much faster than your results show....you can do it!!
