No one can be blamed for abandoning this beast. People came in covered with mud after multiple crashes on slimy trail. By the time they reached Devil's Pass trailhead, some were in the early stages of hypothermia. Those who cracked included some of the toughest riders in Southcentral Alaska.
Here's to the toughest and fastest in each solo division: Peter and Darcy.

These two photos show the contrast between having a front fender and not having one.
I think I figured out how to finish next year, train with Darcy! She was smokin' fast even in the mud.
I'm definitely getting one of those fenders. Looking through my photos of the finishers, there were four or five that had that style fender, and all of them had clean faces and chests. Every other finisher was covered in mud, head to toe.
