Gunnison Growler
The Gunnison Growler course was a great challenge as usual this year. Racers rolled out of town with a vehicle escort to pace the crowd. Mike Mangan and Jeni Turgeon were the BWR racers for this event.
Great Ergon grips and Kenda Tires Small Block 8 tires did the trick for the course for the singlespeed!
Riders had a wet day, so lots of mud on the bikes and the racers at the end of the race! Thank goodness for Showers Pass jackets. Both Mike and Jeni brought out the ProTech jackets for the race and stayed dry. King Cage kept out bottles on the bike throughout the race, and Sock Guy kept our feet nice and warm.
Congrats to Jeni who placed 2nd women’s singlespeed and Mike who placed 4th. Both Jeni and Mike raced the 32-mile 1/2 Growler.
