2008 Northstar at Tahoe XC - Race #5

Xtreme Outfitters Mountain Bike Race Team
Hyland Fisher - Expert Men - 3 Laps - Time: 1:20:42 - 14:26 off leader
11th Place of 19 Entries

I flatted in the last 1/2 mile of the race and lost 3-4 places. I blame the Kenda Nevegal tires that came with my Giant Trance X1. I've had four flats on these tires since April. The sidewall on these tires are too thin and have had many sidewall cuts. I will try to set up these tires with the "Ghetto Tubeless" system before next week's race.
