north iowa Gravel Series Results-

Tulip notes? What's that?

If your looking for some sort of award I have plenty of stuff to pass out from the Swag Swap box.

LML 2017. it's a wrap.

Final thoughts LML Version 5.8-

- Once again, this edition of LML blows me away with generosity. On behalf of Monica (the beneficiary), THANK YOU. This event would not continue if it was just a race... Making a difference no matter how big or small is why this thing happens.
- Special THANK YOU to the volunteers- Anna G, Don McN, Amanda B, Kelly B, TMB, Victoria, Tyler, C5, DVD, the duo of Jimmmmay & the one and only Stoener, Brenda K, Ms Madeline K, & my partner in this thing we call life, Dawn.
- One last THANK YOU to the sponsors; Harry's Café, & Milltown Cycles, without them, this race would not happen. Specials 'thanks' to Todd T, Travis S, and the volunteers that helped at Milltown Cycles. One more 'thanks' to Dan and Automotive Enginuity for there help with the race prep at the finish line.

Things to ponder for LML 2018-
- Lite route timed, means longer, means a thing we call 'climb(s) to nowhere or knowhere'.
- Use of advanced course digital maps. This will only be done if weather results in soggy paper tulips. Sorry, I'm with the Ragnarok Guys, this is part race/ part self navigation... You get yourself in a hole, you get out of it.
- Word from the gravel street, people were skipping the 1 and only Climb To Nowhere. LAME.
- No shows. I was a tad disappointed in the 30+ no shows. You had ample time to let me know you were not making it. The weather was no threat either.
- If you are an IT software wizard I would like to come up with a better and more efficient format for tulip notes. If interested, send me a signal.
- To end on a good note. Each year I say, if it was more fun than the previous, then we do it again... It was, so we shall. See you at some random spot on some random deal... For now, I go back in my shell.

Final Results- facts, fallacies, & innuendo's

Results are Final- '*' indicates updates. Sean Mailen finished seventh, Chelsea Strate tied for first Female finisher... Margin of error was under 10%. Thanks to my guys...

Facts-
155 participated, 33 Lite racers, 1 hard core Sveta Vold and her 2 kids in tow...

Feedback from the Lite crowd, you all would have appreciated being scored and timed... I have a couple ideas... How about I add a climb to nowhere and a climb to knowwhere  to slow you all down so that my guys are there to tally you results... Sound good? Perfect.

Highlighted in yellow below- you never checked in with any of my guys... Hope your okay and you didn't get cheated.

Apologies to the last few full loop finishers for not being at the line. Again 10% error factor in accumulating the head count.

MOST IMPORTANT. The fundraiser and generous donations you guys contributed to Monica Theis. $5224 dollars in fact. Again, THANK YOU. That makes us want to do this again...

Again THANKS to HARRY'S CAFE (especially Victoria), and MILLTOWN CYCLES.
