I did unpaved last year for the first time and had a blast! The event is by no means about racing and more about ripping an amazing route with cool people and vibing out at the aid stations. Sure there are timed segments to go really hard on but those are for sure secondary to hot dogs and perogies.

Forgot my helmet cam. So check out Dirtwire TV for amazing footage of the incredible fall foliage and riding shots.
