and it was the 1st time ever not just this year that I finished ahead of Grady in a XC race. I did finish ahead of him at Platte with a little help from him flatting.
I have raced against Aaron since I started racing 3 years back and had only got 2nd to him until this year we went to expert but in different age groups. without Grady and his family who cheers everyone on during the races event after event. even the last lap and half that I led Aaron his whole family cheered me , Jesse and Aaron on as we rolled around on Saturday I probably wouldn't riding so well.
I just didn't want what Ryan said too come across wrong, and I look forward to racing with Aaron and all the other fast guys while I can.
Bring on Swanson, should be fun. Hopefully we'll have a lot better turn out, bug your buddies to come and race.
Hot, bumpy, slow, damned thirsty... alot of fun (just not during the race)! Still wish T-bone could have made it with his dual suspension single speed. They had great race support and markings up there just bad luck with the super hot weather. Hope this course makes the schedual next year, but Saturday was a very slim turnout. Maybe if the race were held in April or May next year when the season is still young there may be a better turn out.

Thank you to everyone who came out and raced and to those who posted comments.
We are looking forward to next year as well.
