This past weekend myself Blair Drader and Ian Loughran of HPL Cycling took part in the River Ridge Trails xc Sask Cup MTB race. It was a great trail route with lots of features including wooden wall ride, tabletop jumps, bridges, climbs, twisting singletrack, drops, you name it. River Ridge Trails never disappoints and Sunday was no exception. Great volunteers, prizes were sponsored by Ryan Derksen at Ens Toyota and Atlas Outdoors Cycle and Recreation with Shiraz Kabob providing excellent wraps for lunch afterwards. Ian’s daughter finished up first in her group, Ian put on a good ride on a hot and dusty day and yours truly ended up in 3rd just behind Oleg and Milton. Hydration needs provided by Nuun Hydration with Pactimo providing the sun protection with their awesome sun sleeves. Garmin providing the stats, map, and keeping track of all the data. Next race action is the 5th Annual Dirty Turtle Gravel Grinder in Bottineau North Dakota this weekend.
