Arctic MTB #6 - 16th August 2016 - The series final

Tuesday the 16th August 2016  marked the final round of the Arctic MTB Kincaid Race Series for 2016.  The six race series always passes so quickly but this year, once again the series has been a blast to compete in with a great variety of courses and weather.  

From the team point of view we've had great participation in the events both racing and assisting with course setup and teardown.

Thanks again to Arctic MTB for putting together a great series, see you all at the Trifecta then following on from that #Crossiscoming with Arctic cross

Alaska Endurance Association Soggy Bottom - 6th August 2016

After the epic rain preceding the Soggy Bottom all the racers were preparing for potentially horrendous conditions on the course. Fortunately the course was mostly just moist with the occasional section of wet. Even a lot of the wet cleared up for many riders return trip back towards Devils pass.

Revolution racing had two riders completing solo for the 100mile event, 2 riders on teams (both took leg 2) and two riders running the SBBS (Soggy Bottom Bacon Station)

Results

7th Place - Samuri Cereal Killers - 9:53:56 (Oscar's Team)
12th Place - Clint - 10:44:26
17th Place - Nick - 11:28:36
23th Place - EMT - 12:14:00 (Ethan's team... I think)
