Scrappy Badger / Cannondale / Substance Projects, Gravel Race

Baltimore ON

Congratulations to Karen and David for their awesome 2nd Place performances.

Rain threatened all morning but in the end it remained clear and ideal conditions for this year’s Scrappy Badger.

Pups raced either the 40 or the 80km, taking in gravel roads familiar to anyone to ride the GoG a few weeks earlier. We had multiple podiums, and for a few it was their first gravel race. Personally (Mark M, LDCC Road Director) I tried to make it a triathlon adding a swim in the mud and running to the medical tent.

Congrats to all the pups racing and a special shout out to new member Karen C continuing her podium trend with a 2nd, Maureen W blazing the 80k with a 3rd, and Robin H who narrowly missing the Female Open podium in 4th. For the men, congrats to Dave L who placed 2nd in the 40k while nursing a bum leg.

Congratulations to Cassidy for her outstanding 2nd Place Finish in the 10-34 Female Category… seen her with her proud father, Chris.

“Maybe if we all think real hard, we can stop this rain, no rain no rain no rain..”

However the weather gods were appeased, we had the driest, sunniest and one of the warmest P2A events in recent memory.

Congrats to all riders on the season opener gravel race, but a special shout out to Sebastian for finishing 7th in M under 12, Cassidy for finishing 2nd Female 19-34, and Karen for finishing just off the podium with a 4th in the UCI F55-59 category.
