There are some amazing pictures of the race on the North Bay Camera Club’s website (northbaycameraclub.com). Thanks to the people who gave up their time to get some shots of us mud splattered and grimacing in pain (or maybe even smiling). Tom

Absolutely a fan-tic-tastic event! Dank U to the organizers, volunteers, sponsors and Mattawa locals for hosting the toughest mountain bike race in Ontario. I had my doubts about this claim, but the sand and most importantly the swamp confirmed the statement. A quick call out to (I think) Mike at checkpoint one for “quickly” replacing a Bowden cable for me……I owe you one!!! See you next year………Dusty.

Organizer’s Note…As per usual, Mechanic services at checkpoint 1 are provided by Christian from North Riders. He’s always a life saver!

Just a quick thankyou again to the great organization from the race directors and the courtesy and patience of the volunteers waiting for an ‘old guy’ to finish the 110km ! Many thanks also to the guys on the ATV’s who stopped and adjusted my brakes in the last 10k enabling me to ride unstead of walk. This race is indeed the hidden gem of MTB racing in Ontario!
