Rich switched things up and turned the course into a figure 8 this year. That loaded all the tough stuff in the second half of the race. I liked it. Very muddy and we rode through active streams 60% of the time. My drivechain is shot! Got the hole shot from the start, lost it to Ho briefly, then pushed hard to finish in the #1 position. David came in 2 minutes behind in second. Great day of racing.
