    Park City Point 2 Point MTB race

    Picture 80 miles of fall single track MTB fun. Can you envision this as a race with 14k' of climbing? You can't? I tried to capture it for you.... Want to try it? Start at Park City Piont To Point and get ready to register fast when it opens. This years race sold out in 3 minutes 57 seconds.




    It's not about the camera....

    Nice pics! My good friend and neighbor Jenny Smith did pretty well this year. Too bad she couldn't hold on to that lead!
    Get any good ones of her? #74 I think.

    Third place! I think she was in first really early on and when I saw her in the middle she was the first woman, but as she passed she said she'd accidentally gone of course and cut a section out. She wasn't the only one and everyone who made that mistake got a 20 minute penalty, I think.

    I don't know if she made the same mistake as the other course cutters. I think she was off the front by 5+ at the first place they passed me, but I missed her because I was screwing with gear. At Flagstaff it was 15 or more. She was 3-4 minutes up on Amanda Carey leaving PCMR. Finished second at Canyons, down 10+ on Carey. I never saw the final timing though.

    Yes, that's her. She was in the lead for a while and I didn't hear how she lost it. Strong lady! Really nice too.
