Brad's Pando Pic... from another team...


Say, I found Brad in a pile photos from MTB-Life/Soul Cycles' site. I think that dab was a point...

12 Hours of Pando!


August 18, 2007. It started with perfect weather for a mountain bike race. Dirt Dads 1 team riders were Bob, Brad, Brian, & Roque. Dirt Dads 2 team riders were Marc, Tim, Harv, & JP. Rusty took off for solo ride! Team 2 led with a strong ride by Marc. But Bob, Brad, & Roque had some great laps and took the lead. The teams held close all day. The trail was dry & dusty. Then the rain started. It was a light rain but it never really ended. The dust diminished but by night it got messy. Check out the PHOTOS!

JP tried to get in before midnight so Marc could take the 29th lap but missed it by less than 2 minutes. Marc was heartbroken but cooled off by taking a shower. Dirt Dads 2 finished 28 laps. Bob made the 29th lap and put Dirt Dads 1 ahead of Dirt Dads 2 by 1 lap. Rusty finished 10 solo laps thanks to strong family support. The taco bar at the finish was great! Do you guys remember how we placed? 5th & 6th?

For you guys who didn't camp at Pando that night, yeah, it rained all night. We slept well anyway.
