Gravel Race
Old Man Winter Bike Race
Lyons, CO • Feb 2 2025 https://my.raceresult.com/325365…Jan did the 75 mile race and Kim the 23 mile race. The 75 mile race had 6K feet of climbing and a 1 mile plus hike a bike in the snow. As the race progressed the wind and wind gusts got worse and worse. The 75 mile race started a 9am and the 23 mile race at 12:30pm so Kim and Kari started at noon to try to avoid some of the worsing wind conditions. The weather service described 75 mile an hour winds.
Kim Bear: 1h 47m 42s, 37/58, Open women
Kim and Kari started early and would have finished in 36th and 37th place respectively but since they started early they did not get an official finish time.
Jan Bear: 5h 19m 56s, 88/169, Men
In looking at the results I was the oldest finisher and 5th of 7 60+ men.
