Buckwallow O-Cup

No pre-ride Saturday after three inches of rain. Water and puddles everywhere. This was the scene for the Buckwallow O-Cup

For race day it was overcast and cool. The sun shone a few times. The trails dried up and became actually quite tacky. A wonderful way to race

After destroying myself at road provincials the day before I knew this was going to be a challenge. With the abundance of double track it was full gas and then rip the single track as fast as you could. If it weren't for the single track I don't think I would've been able to drop fellow roadie Brendan Etzl (who won road provincials the day before). It was a good course. A bit of rain in the last lap added to the fun. Only dinged my rim a couple times, scaring the heck out of me!

Good times though. Took the win with a 5 minute lead. (I do ride at Buckwallow quite a lot)
Overall great event!
