Backcountry bike race

Yesterday we both went in the Bike Race on Cortes; I did the 5 km one and Brad rode the long one, up steep rocky roads, through mossy glades, mud, skinny single track with rocks and roots and over narrow bridges in the forest. The winner did it in 59 minutes on a single speed custom built bike.




The start of the 5 km race for "kids and mellow adults!"
