Ramble Around Prattsburgh 2012

Another sweet Rambler. It's always so fun to see everyone after a winter of hiding. Jeff and Katina picked up the slack for the Crankskins crew with some solid podiums, I had plenty of fun but was edged out right at the end for a podium spot. Weather this year was incredible relative to years past. Fridged but no rain during the race, and a pretty dry course considering. Got to preview a few sections Saturday evening so that was a huge plus. I had a flat out awesome weekend. The weekend ended on a somber note though as tragically someone passed away right out on the course. My heart and thoughts go out to his family.

The trip went smoothly on the way down, until my super secret shortcut backfired when a bridge was closed with no warning and no detour as it was out in the stix somewhere. Return trip was a white knuckle 7 hour suffer fest in some really crappy conditions. Funny how that always seems to be the case. Four Redbulls and a huge coffee later...

Fail
Beautiful trip into NY
