OMBC Race #1 Mohican Wilderness





Throw it all at me! The only things missing from this race were an earthquake and a tornado. All four Team Soupcan members took to a cold, rainy, snowy, sleety mudfest that at the post race celebration was agreed to be one of the harshest races in worse conditions that we have ever done. This course has the hardest climb in Ohio and another on the backside just as equally terrible and the weather beatdown resulted in pushing the bikes up about 90% of both hills. Wes, John and Jason did the three lap open vet race and finished 3rd, 4th and 5th and beat up on plenty of young dude experts. I tackled the sport vertan category and finished 5th for the day and damn near cracked top ten overall. But this race made a man out of anybody who attempted and finished it.
