Very Late Cohutta Report

Permalink | Comment (1) | Share This

Sorry that it took so long to get this up, I did the Cohutta 65 way back when. It was a great course. It rained but the mud was very manageable. I think the larger contact patch of the 29′er is what did it, I was running Jones Dry tires and they still handled fine in the mud! Back to the course, it was great. The singletrack was super flowy, I can’t imagine how fast it would be dry. Most of the climbing was fire road so it was nice to not have to worry about technical stuff and just pedal. There was lots of great views at the tops of the climbs. I felt pretty happy with my finish, it took 6:37 which is pretty good for me. The winner of the 100 miler was only ten minutes behind me, that is just incredible! Stuff like that will definately keep me humble and also motivates me seeing what is possible!
