What an awesome time!
I finished 10th in the Iron man, I have no idea of the class standings (I was 14th at the 1/2way point all quads counted)

There were a ton of DNF's dont know how many finished at this point, the info is supposed to be posted on their web site soon.

Got to meet Tricitydale who freakin took 3rd! Great job Jeff! Was a pleasure to meet you smile.gif

I know there were three cannondales in the top ten, not a bad showing.

Ive got some amazing video of the hole shot. I wish they had a radar gun for that! man we were screamin!

Anyway, that's it. My first race, Im hooked smile.gif

Sounds like you had a strenuous yet great time. Can't wait till I get to start later this year. I can't till September/October in anything big though. Sucks but that's the rules.

Thanks, was an incredible time. There was a helicopter there, I wonder if that video can be purchased? Tricity do you know?

When she saw these pics my wife asked what the thing was on my lip...

It's either brain matter or a chipped tooth. **** Racin is fun smile.gif

Evidently racing makes your head square too smile.gif
