6 Hours of El Lagarto







We headed to Lakeland for the 6 hours of El Lagarto mountain bike race. Jay and Marshall both raced along with some friends from OYM, Matt, Julie, Kip and Dave. Marshall raced up an age group in the 10-14 category because he thought the race for his age was too easy...hehe! The kids race was a little goofy, the course was not clearly marked so all of the kids went in different directions. They didn't end up giving places since it was a little crazy, but they all had a fun time! Jay completed 7 laps and rode for 5 hours and 11 minutes (he was the fastest in the 7 lap group). He finished 23 out of 50 overall, this was his 2nd mountain bike race ever! I manned the tent and passed out bottles and nutrition which was fun too! Oh yeah, and all of the races started with a potato sack race...pretty funny!
