Cycle Logic at Leadville

Cycle Logic's very own Darryl Tompkins will be taking part in this weekend's Leadville Trail 100 mountain bike race in Leadville, CO.

Made famous by the recent participation of Lance Armstrong, the Leadville 100 is a 100-mile mountain bike course within the beautiful, high altitude mountains and valleys of Leadville, Colorado. The majority is on back-country roads with some short sections of paved road. The entire course is 9,000 feet and climbs to almost 13,000 feet. Although Lance has opted to not subject himself to the torture of the race this year, Darryl will be at the start line with his wife, Cindy, in attendance working as his support crew.

To understand the spectacle of this race and it's "epic" nature, be sure to watch "Race Across the Sky", which was shot during the 2009 running of the race. While you are sitting around doing nothing this weekend, or after you get back from your two or three hour ride this weekend...think of Darryl who will be enduring 100 miles of off-road racing at elevation!

Good Luck Darryl!
