Century Race in Las Vegas

Mike and Wayne decided to head over to Las Vegas and try out the Viva Bike Vegas Century ride (115 miles!) through the Las Vegas Valley. The cool thing is that this race included a ride across the new Hoover Dam bridge. Unfortunately, Mike and Wayne were too late to sign up so they couldn't do the bridge, but they did everything else!

At the starting line and sitting with all the "faster" roadies.

Here we go!


The banners and set up. The riders got steaks from Outback when they returned. Nice!


Mike and Wayne made some good time. The first fifty miles only took them three hours and they were able to complete the whole thing in about six hours. Considering Mike was on his mountain bike (with road wheels), we consider this a major accomplishment.
Congrats to you both!
