ASS #1 Results - Global Fat Bike Day Short Track at Cuddy Park

Thanks everybody for coming out to the first Abominable race of the season. That was a great turnout, fun course and a venue that will have to be used again in the future. That was a larger turnout than expected and it maxed out our timing crew, so if you think your result is incorrect, feel free to send me and email at wross@chainreactioncycles.us.
