Pirates @ Dawn2Dusk



The Knox brothers... aka Lance Upper Cut & Mountain Goat are racing today as a duo in Dawn Till Dusk 12 Hour MTB race in Gallup, NM. The picture above is the "timing chip necklace" that they have to wear. The trail is a "slow" 12 miles with high ledges and a few drops offs (could get sketchy) and is purportedly sweet (i.e. similar to Fruita or Grand Junction).
