well i had my big race ! 1202 finishers what a zoo .it was a great day for the race but the head wind was killer ,if you stopped pedaling you would swear that it would push you back up hill .the scenery was awesome ,rural ontario, through people,s farms along the grand river and some really cool killer mud hills .people were amazing you would hear fellow riders thanking the cops and volunteers as they rode past ,people would talk to you as they rode past …..ack ..its fun and friendly ,there was even a tandem bike team and the one guy was blind ! and no he wasnt driving .as for placing and times the best 1hr;50mins by some guy from boston ,my time 4hrs;09mins i placed 1101 out 1202 and i will be doing it again next year.this type of thing is the whole point of staying in shape for me ;yes i want to look great and i do but i want to enjoy life as much of life as possible .as a matter of fact they had guys my age finnish that race in 2 hrs .i must admitt the best parts of the race were the filthy ones .i rode as much of the mud hills as possible ,right up until i had to yank my bike out of the muck it was that stuck .fun fun fun
