Crested Butte 100, CB100, 1st singlespeeder, 13th overall.

Crested Butte 100, CB100. Fastest singlespeed time and 13^th fastest overall with geared racers at 9:20. Awesome race on some of the best and most scenic singletrack anywhere. Tough race! http://coloradoes.wordpress.com/swes-event-list/cb-100/ Check out the stats at http://connect.garmin.com/activity/226333204

Chilly start but I warmed up fast on the climbs. The aspen trees were changing and were peaking. The scenery was epic. Lots of fun, fast singletrack. Weather was perfect!

Great finish at the Brick Oven for beer, pizza and hinging out with friends!
