2nd Place!
I am proud to announce that team Ride It Like You Stole It finished 2nd out of 21 coed teams at 24 Hours of Hurkey Creek! We actually lead the race for most of the 24 hours and ended up losing the race in the last 2 hours. Here's some stats: As a team we rode 25 laps, I did 5 of those. The course was 10 miles, with 1,300 feet of climbing. I rode 2 day laps and 3 night laps. It was 40 degrees for my night lap, and 102 degrees for my last day lap. My fastest lap was 55 minutes, my longest night lap was 1:03. We are all recovering today and I hope to get some pictures up later. Tinker quit after 5 laps, Rishi Grewal quit after 6 I think. I passed Mary Grigson once (she finished 1st in the solo category).
More later.

Excellent. Congrats! What kind of coed category was it? I'm more familiar with the way Granny Gear runs it, Coed Pro. Does Trilife have any category restrictions, or is it just Coed open?
Great riding. Get some rest - lots. Sound like you guys deserve it.

It was coed open, 4 guys and myself. That means any level of rider can be on the team. In fact, while we were setting up camp Friday night there was a female rider out doing nose wheelies through the campground. To my surprise, Marla Streb was camped right across from us and was on another coed team! To think, we beat Marla Streb's team!

That's awesome! Don't know about the men on Marla Streb's team, but if I can recall, even though she's Pro Downhiller, she still wins Expert xc races regularly.
What kind of team won? Was it mostly pro/semipro types? We got 3rd last year in CoedPro at Moab, but we were the 1st place not trade team. You should be very proud. I know how hard that was to do.
you rock.

Thank you everyone for the kind words. And Jojo, you're right, girls kick ass! Funny story, on my last night lap my team was down 2 minutes when I went out. I caught up to the competition and proceeded to stick to his rear wheel. He yelled back, "Wanna pass?" and I replied, "Yes!" he started to pull over while asking, "You aren't team 241 are you?" To which I gleefully yelled out as I passed him - "Yep, and you're getting your ass kicked by a girl!" Being the night lap, there was a jam up of people around us and they ll broke out laughing and teasing him.
Wohoo!
