I road it for the first time this year. Was a very cool + fulfilling weekend. Being soaked to the bone for 36 hours was not fun though!! But it was worth every drop. Met some amazing people, my body + bike came out much better than I thought it would, and have some great memories of the event!! We got into main camp around 130pm on Saturday and finished up on Sunday around 1230pm. The extra 10km they tacked on to the ride on Saturday was a mental killer!! 115km is easy, but 125km is nigh on impossible!!

That camp at Chain Lakes was something else...3-4" of rain, flowing water down Tent City, 6-8" of mud, and everybody soaked with a smile on their face.
