Dave Thomason and the top 10 women
New in 2011, the mostly rolling single track course started and finished at Breedlove Guitars on the west side of Bend in the Northwest Crossing neighborhood. Utilizing many mountain bike trails originating from Phil’s trailhead, the race wound through pine forests and open desert with scenic views of snowcapped volcanoes.
The large staff of enthusiastic volunteers was lead by race director Super Dave Thomason. Post race amenities included ample sunshine, warming temperatures, a beer garden courtesy of Deschutes Brewery, Jamba Juice smoothies and a multitude of other snacks and refreshments. There was $2,500 in cash prizes, courtesy of the Visit Bend (the City of Bend Visitors bureau). This race is also a successful fundraiser, having contributed over $100,000 to the Deschutes Land Trust.
