CRESTED BUTTE CARNAGE, CHAINLESS DOWNHILL RACE 2009

30 Miles into the XC race Deer Trail came back onto Gothic Road before heading back to the ski area for one last crushing climb. 40 miles, 8500 feet of climbing.

The hay bails were stacked high for the awaiting carnage.

If you have never witnessed this event, mark it on the to do list...it's sheer madness.

Squirt Lube station 30 miles into the race...it was heavily used.
The views up Gothic are killa...

  2. Gunnison-Crested Butte;
    Absolutley. When I get a chance I'll put a Youtube video together you can imbed. We had a great time this weekend. As you may or may not know I was there with Squirt Lube as their USA rep. We had a blast, worked and played hard! Hopefully NO rain next year!
