In the 15 or so years of the Harris-Roubaix there has never once been rain. Tradition proved true again this year! The temperatures stayed cool and did warm up from the initial frigid wind chill everyone felt at Court Square for the noon send off.
One of the reasons I love this ride so much is that it is everyone! You have the speed racers battling out for the 3 lap crown and you have your casual riders out for a beautiful Sunday ride.
As for the leaders, it was a battle of 4 riders who took control of the course by the 2nd lap. David Flaten, Danny Gibney, Andy Rhodes and Paul Deeble. David Flaten rolled into the farm first at the end of 3 laps.
Once again, thank you to the Chambers Family for hosting, SMT for the supplies, the volunteers (Jake, Lemma, Bart, Marcia, Collin, Basil, Bruce, Stephen, Adam, Misty, Chris C) and all who brought great food! See you again next year for another running of the Harris-Roubaix "A celebration of Gravel Roads".
