12.28.2016: #festive500 Day 05: 500k & then some!

As the Festive core crew rolls out… three of us will pass the 500k mark today, three days early to our delight!

This was an exciting ride… one of those days when you know you are going to hit the mark, not worried about performance or how you feel. Spirits were high and the conversations were up as well. This was my first time completing the Festive 500 in three attempts. Year one had 2-3 days or freezing rain and ice. Last year we traveled back and forth to Canada during the festive and nothing like 8hr days in the car to kill your effort level combined w/then having to ride solo at night… naaaah.

Left to right: Myself, Chris Daniels and Mike Wolford all well over the 500k mark on day 5. Now off to scout out the Cold Roll course.

Next I drove out to the Timber Pointe Outdoor Center to do some fatbike recon for what the Cold Roll 2017 course could be with Scott, Dave and Gina.

While out on the Timber Pointe trails my GoPro Session caught a fun little whiteout by Scott Davis so I had to put a quick edit together… enjoy!
