"Beat the sun" is going to be my mantra. I live in the Sunbelt and am no fan of it when the heat is on. Well done! Really enjoy your perspective on these. The good and the grueling. It's great. (Were you sponsored, or does everyone get crew care afterwards?) Thanks! (Also short hair looks great on you!!)
Thank you! I am not sponsored. We brought a friend to crew for us. You can also use their crew for hire service. It’s considered a self-supported race, so you are required to have someone who can come get you if something goes wrong.
Depends on the year. This year it was about 45%. Last year it was 15%. The weather made a huge difference, this year, 80% of riders finished; last year, it was only 60%.
