A little vacation and a little racin’. This is a great event and I hope the Northwest Challenge grows into a series of top notch MTB races along with all the other competitions. Check it out!

I got off to a slow start with some drivetrain issues (derailleurs don’t like sticks), but things settled down and I moved to the front of the race began to open a nice gap the first time up Mt. Bailey. The trail down is super fun so I am sure my lead increased.

The second time up/down I tried to do everything smoother and it seemed like I did since I won the race easily and averaged 14 mph doing so.

Diamond Lake is one of my favorite Oregon destinations so this event will always mark my calendar!
