Alien Run MTB Race 2009
The annual Alien Run MTB Race was held on April 26, 2009 in Aztec, NM. BWR was represented at the venue with Mike Mangan, Jeni Turgeon, and Greg Kaufman. The day was beautiful and the singletrack was nicely packed, without a lot of the sand that has been an issue in the past. At 10 AM, the mass start began, and the race was on! The expert categories raced 25 miles and the sport categories raced 24 miles.
The race course was a combination of dirt roads among the oil fields and great singletrack that had a little bit of everything to offer. The slick rock section at the Aztec UFO crash site is always lots of fun!
The final stats:
Expert Veteran, 5th Place, Mike Mangan
Expert Masters, 4th Place, Greg Kaufman
Sport Veteran, 2nd Place, Jeni Turgeon
