2009 State Gravel Results

A hearty helping of hospitality and gregarious gravel racing was to be had in New Hartford last Saturday at the 2009 Iowa State Gravel Championships. The 6-mile laps were comprised of beautiful rolling hills and few stingers - a great course. First time racers and some from the Twin Cities saddled up, too.

The course, the weather and the competition were only out-shone by the helpful and friendly volunteers. The event was nothing short of amazing.

Without further to do - the results. (Which I don't think have been posted elsewhere yet.)
