What a fun challenge! We had to rally as a team and dig a bit deep to hit our goal distance but it felt great to actually finish.

Riding the Loop was an EPIC challenge! Holy smokes. That took some work and dedication. Can't describe what it felt like to finish. The merch was amazing too. Thanks all.
