Default MRAN - Bitter Springs Nevada

This was my first time to photograph a MRAN race here in Las Vegas......Damn, this is some great riding....a 45 mile loop X2. Thanks to California, I bet this race will never see a mud-bowl like this again. Once I get a bike I am heading out to this Lake Mead area for sure...some great terrain.

Viva Las Vegas, Baby!

That is sweet! How many were in the 40+? I wish I went out to see this race!

Nice photos vegasphotog! Let me know when you are heading out to a event like this. I enjoy learning from folks that have experience like you.

dont have time right now to go back and count on the finish list, but I would guess about 10-12. In all actuallity, I only did that well because I did the whole 2 laps. Only 3 of us in the S class did the whole thing, on the other hand, you do have to finish to win...

I know this is a little late, but... thanks to "club" points, I was 1st in class! The next race was my clubs (jackrabbits), so I worked the race, couldnt ride it, and am not #1 anymore. Probably wont happen again this year, but at least I can say I had the lead for a while.
