Raw Highlights from my 12th place ride at the 2024 USA Cycling Gravel National Championships!

This race was awesome! Super dynamic with hills, sand traps, cross winds and tactical games. I was able to massively improve upon my 2023 ride at nationals where I fell out of the main group at mile 50.

This year I was active and in control in the main group for most of the day. I gritted my teeth to make it over the highway climb at mile 96, and then found myself in the lead group of 12 heading up the final climb at mile 115

Unfortunately I lost it there, but kept on the gas riding solo into town to maintain 12th place and only finished 2min 53sec down on the winner, Mr Brennan Wertz!
