It is a bit odd no one has posted up about it yet. Nothing on the Snow Enduro thread either..............odd.

Nobody died

I knew it would be "less casual" than Pachaug, but I was I bit unprepared for the level of intensity. Don't get me wrong, I did great, but it was like riding Pachaug twice. The single track was incredible. It just kept going and going. A couple rocky muddy slop holes, but not too bad. Over all the conditions were great, don't confuse that with easy though.

The only pics I have are on my GoPro. I got a few laughs for wearing it on top of my helmet, but hey, it's still there. You just have to remember to duck a little lower than you normally do. I think I only hit one major tree branch with it. I didn't get my fall on camera either. Really. I was out in front of our group laying down a respectable pace when my bike went one way and I went the other. I'm happy to say that I narrowly escaped any injuries.

It was a fine day for a ride. We all had a great time.

Did you get 3rd place and then lose it? or was that a different Rob?

Drewha · 02-19-2012, 04:38 PM

I was there spectating and taking some pix. I saw you Rob, but your pic was blocked by a tree. The Orange Koolaid was there in abundance. I'm guessing 60-70 riders. Here's some pix and I'll put a link to all of them at the end.

Drewha · 02-19-2012, 04:39 PM

I should probably post them on the Snow Run Thread.

Vet=over 30 Senior=over 40 Super Senior=over 50 Masters= over 60

Where are the rest of the troops?

ct-ktm · 02-20-2012, 06:25 AM

c senior they were all on the same minute..

akarob · 02-20-2012, 06:27 AM

It means we're old. Ed, Thad, Brian and I were all in row 26. The number in the right under the "Total" column is how far off the pace you are, in minutes. A lower number is better. The top 3 scores overall were 18, 21 & 21. Those guys must have come out of the womb on a KTM doing a wheelie - they're better than most will ever be.

I don't see Thad or Kreech or any others I would recognize from here. Is it a Netra membership thing?
