Racing for the Podium - BWR British Columbia 2024 Race Recap

This race was epic in so many ways from the scenery of the ferry ride in to the single track mountain descents through pined forests. The race itself hits hard at mile 8 with a BRUTALY steep climb and sends you right into a rad single track descent. This left Julien and I in a fight to catch the 3 leaders. It took a bit, but we caught up and then it was nonstop action to the finish!
