I'm going to buy a couple pics over the weekend from my favorite race photographer, in the mean time, I'll share some of the bar-mounted GoPro video of the Fat Bike Loppet 35K

The start was a little chaotic:


We had some fast descents, I looked at my Garmin data to see we were doing over 20 mph here:


I was over 30 mph on a longer, steep hill later in the race. 30+mph on snow with a bike is a bit freaky, those soft snow sections that take out riders in the first clip, those were peppered throughout the course.

Here's the finish line selfie with teammate

BTW - it was 0F for the race... that's why I have a nice snot-cicle and a nice glacier forming under my sunglasses.
