Last weekend was the Leadville 100 with 1000 mountain bikers and climbs over 12000 feet.

Dave Wiens a 44 year old from Gunnison Colorado finished the race in under 7 hours in front of Tour De France super hero Lance Armstrong.

A personal favorite picture for me is this pic of Lance doing a Hike a Bike up the Cobra climb….Now I feel better about the Hike a Bike sections of the Whiskey Off Road here in Prescott.

Great stuff.

Hope to attend this event someday
