This was my first run back after knee surgery, and even though we lived down there for 18 years, I forgot how TOUGH – and unmaintained – those trails were. I took my time deliberately to preserve my well-taped knee. The sunset was beautiful, the trails were as I then recalled – tough and tricky in spots. Having ridden those trails in the endurance rids of the past, I was aware of how tough they were but it slipped my mind, and so my time stunk. Management did a great job, trail was well marked except in the turn for the finish, and the event was well attended. Well trimmed mustard plant most of the way, and lovely finishing medals. Shirts not great – handsome design but too small when they shrunk. SUPER after race food! Beer garden and street tacos included. All in all a terrific event.
