The 2013 STEVENS BIKES Husky MTB Marathon has been run & won. The STEVENS Team faired quite well on the day. Here is a brief rundown on the results.
Tom Green - 3rd Outright / 2nd open Men.
Andrew Arthur - 4th Outright / 3rd Open Men.
Troy Fisher - 6th Outright / 1st Masters Men.
Phil Mawbey - 7th Veteran Men. Sick & had a nasty fall on his head.
Mitch Codner - 11th Open Men. Good to see Mitch back after some time off the bike.
Emma Bussell - 4th Lady / 2nd Veteran Woman. Emma suffered a fall thanks to no fault of her own not long into the race as can be seen on this video. To her credit, she got up battered & bruised, fixed the bike & was the very last rider of all start waves to get going. Remarkedly she passed 350 men & women to be the 4th woman accross the line & still managed a ride time (despite all that traffic) that would have seen her challenge for the outright Womens win! Great effort Emma.
Here is a short video of the start of the first wave of riders in the 50km event, where all 6 of the STEVENS Team can be spotted. Thanks to Rob Green for the footage.
Thank you to the Team & supporters for your assistance over the course of the weekend with the set-up & pull-down, among other things. We couldn't have done it without you.
