Comments:

Had a couple flat tires, missed one turn on paved road and lost about 40-45 minutes easy.
What would you do differently?:

Go the right way and different bike.
Either beefed up Cross bike with bigger tires and different bars OR most likely a "roaded down" hard tail mountain bike.
Way too brutal with rocks on the fast roads. This will be MUCH more fun on larger tires and straight bars.

Event comments:

Crazy race/endurance event. Definitely keep on calendar. I'll use Mtn bike next year or a special CX bike with Mtn forks/bars etc.
