This year's Coolest 24 race event was a great success,
finishing 3rd place with the new look trophy and more exciting as the
last 4 years back event. With the dedication and determination of momentum
rolling from each one of the riders, Arnel, UBhal, Dave, Ferd, JR, Junnel, Mar,
Melvin, Rommel, Sean, and of course UNJAY (Pink Rider)! Team Sparechange 2011 is another fun atmosphere team with the
support of the best... Tracy, Josie M., Josie B., Auntie Vicky, Monica,
Charlene, Eddie and of course Frank. And not to forget our four-legged babies,
Oakley and Chewee. All in all, we might not be the fastest team, but 3rd out there,
but we are the most festive and dedicated!!! A big thanks to each one
that participated in the race, showed up for support, and those who donated for
a worthy cause. Each participant in the race challenged themselves and
slayed the intense 8.57-mile course of Royal Gorge.
Everyone finished at least one lap, some racers two laps, and our fastest night
rider of the event Dave shined with 2 runs, and the fastest day and fastest overall of 48 minutes, beat his own record, Sean (oh also the most fundraiser! ) We love you!!!!Thank you!!!
Regardless of mountain biking
experience, each racer left everything they had on the course and spent the
rest of their energy having fun back at camp. Whether, a person had been
biking for 10 years or a person never hopped on a mountain
bike before, it didn't matter at this event. Everyone
exceeded expectations.
Back at the camp, our support team kept the food, bbq grill cooking and the cameras
clicking, keeping the event live. The support expressed by not only
those who came out, but from those that donated to this worthy cause truly made
it special. Definitely one of the best 24 hours of my life!!!!
