WHO IS THIS FREAK? Jake Wells (http://www.mafiaracing.com/) on day two, lapped all but three riders in the men's open race. The course became a slopfest as temps rose into the mid 30's later in the day. Earlier the temps were in the high 20's....I literally froze my ass off during my race and left part of a cheek out there which was later used to build the snowman below.
Jake Wells the day before had one of his best victories period as far as I'm concerned. He crushed it right out of the starting gate and beat Jay Henry (in his first CX race), Mike Janelle, and Glen Light out of Steamboat by a substantial gap...Jay Henry came with a brutal chase with two to go and closed the gap down on his Mt Bike...but put himself in the CYCLOCROSS LOCKER OF HURT trying to catch and eventually conceded the very well earned victory to JW. Wife Linda and Daughter Tatum gleamed with joy as dad threw down his big can of woopass. Big win...Jay Henry could race in the Flintstone Mobile and it would be one hell of an effort to beat him...for JW, the future is now.
