The day couldn’t have worked out any better. Earlier in the week weather reports were for rain mixed with snow but the weather was great and the trail conditions were great thanks to the MMBTS Trail day on Saturday. Shaft was the trail used for the event and it was expertly buffed in preparation for the race.

MMBTS was the winner of the Trailbuilder of the Year Award. These people definitely deserve it

The bike ghosting competition was awesome as well. Gotta say there was some serious bike ghosting skills. It was almost as much fun than the riding during the day.
