I watched this race last year and have read some of the tweets about the race. Lots of grass at this venue. One tweet I read said "Where is the mud? Its the grass".

The ACA results shows 78 starters and 54 finishers. I think this is an error. I know that I finished the race, but am not listed as a finisher. has anyone else noticed this??

Really? I thought the course was great. It was fast and it flowed really well. In Colorado we get WAY too much single track, mis-placed barriers/logs, and sketchy off camber (yesterday for example) and Saturday was a very nice change from the norm. It reminded me of an east coast race. Alpha #2, Boulder #3 and the DBC designs have been my favorite this year so far. Just saying and no offense to anybody. It's about flow, speed and challenging the rider - I loved it, more please.

for my tastes. Not bashing the club, execution or general atmosphere but I found myself daydreaming on the many long straights. I still had fun.
