Vapor Trail 125 2011 Results and Thoughts

The 2011 Vapor Trail 125 was a great event this year,

sounds like everyone enjoyed the great weather, the bright moon and most of all the crew and aid stations provided by Absoulte bikes.

We have a new course record set by Jonathon Davis with a finish time of 13 hours and 42 minutes. Jon set out to break the course record this year and that he did, Jon came in an hour and a half a head of second place Aaron Huckstep and almost 2 hours a head of third place Aaron Gulley.

Kurt Refsnider finished in downtown Salida at 2:08 pm giving him a finish time of 16 hours and 8 minutes and 5th place. I thought that Kurt would pull out the overall win but it wasn't his day.

Eszter Horanyi was the first woman to arrive in Salida at 4:27 pm which gave her a fininshing time of 18 hours and 27 minutes.

The second place woman, Becky Sears rolled into Salida at 7:24 pm just under 3 hours after Eszter. Cat Morrison DNF'd some time through the night.

There was 38 finishers and 11 riders that DNF'd, this is a very demanding course and everyone worked very hard but also it sounds like they tried their best to have fun as well.

A big thanks goes out to the volunteers and fine folks at Absolute bikes.
