6 Hours of Warrior Creek



I'm so excited to race again that I stayed up until 12:01am the other night just to make sure I got a spot in the 6 hours of warrior creek race. Some of you are asking, "why would he do such a thing"? Well, that's when registration opened up, and it sold out in 10 hours. The race isn't for six months, but that's how popular it is. As you can see from the picture to the left, they have some sweet singletrack - I dare say some of the best around. What is my prize for such devotion you ask? I get to race, uummm I mean suffer, for 6 hours on my bike in the woods. Stop shaking your head, it's not for everybody. Why is it I do such a thing? Do I like to suffer? Maybe. Do I like the sweet taste of victory? Sure, but if i end up on the podium somebody slap me because I may be dreaming. Do I love riding singletrack? definetly. Do I enjoy training for a race like this and seeing how far I can push myself? No doubt about it. I'll check back here with occassional updates between my 5 hour long bike rides as the training progresses over the winter.
