Thank you for an enjoyable read. It sounds an incredible event, sadly we don’t get big events like that in NZ. You were dissatisfied with your result but you did and finished the race. Well done!

Thank you!! It is well worth a trip someday to check out some events like these, even with the travel time. There are many fun large one like Mid South, but it's also worth checking out smaller ones like Rattlesnake (https://rattlesnakegravelgrind.bike) or Open Range (https://www.openrangegravel.com) as the community atmosphere is incredible there as well! There are so many events you could do a 3-week trip with 3 different events.
