      That for watching! This is a fun course, the hilly nature of this course ups the ante quite a bit. Fast downhills, slow up hills 😂

    Good to see you in Michigan! We have so much gravel racing here. BRX is the biggest and runs so smoothly. Check out Moran 166 (and 66 and this year 33) up in the Upper Peninsula for a stellar ride in the amazing Fall colors. The ride is flatter and the vibe is more laid back but just as fun!

      Hey Brian, Thanks for watching! I’ve actually never been to the UP so ride sounds like the right way to check that part of the country. Adding it to my list

    Started doing BR at race 2 and then 9 more. They used to hold the race starting at Yankee Springs State Park. Moved to Hastings after 4 years. I think they realized there was money to be made off all those cyclist passing through town to the park race venue.😝 The first few races did not get over 300 racers . The move to Hasting and just blew it up. Personally the crowd just wore me out much like the Iceman Race . The original promoter/founder loved to look for the most elevation he could find. Sager Rd. was the sweet spot on the course. 🤣 You could always tell who the roadies were compared to the mountain bikers that had more skill riding those conditions.

      @iowagravelgrinder  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks for watching! That would make sense on moving the starting point. Also was wondering why all the hills but now I know. How many times did you do Iceman? I'm thinking of trying it this year perhaps.

    Seems like Barry Roubaix lived up to its reputation. Great video as usual! How did you like the wave starts?

      Barry is no joke, but a run ride all in all. The wave starts make a lot of sense.

    Catching up on your videos during rainy day trainer sessions. I see you have your coach, i.e. mother, my cousin, the demolisher of
    nearly ever Ragbrai, ever :) Fantastic!!

      We sure did have coach in tow. She wanted to make sure we stuck to the game plan. Soon the rain will be done and it will be outside riding sessions!
