One last stop before 10,200 ft.

On the way to Leadville for race #1 we picked up a birthday gift for Dale. A full on custom Raven Snowbike complete with Gates CDS Centertrack drivetrain. Our buddies at Raven Cycle Werks have a good little local thing going, check them out HERE.After scooping up this beauty we headed west & stopped at Dillan Dam brewery to fill up for the weekend of high country racing. Too funny, we talked to Corey the head brewer and ran into the one and only Christina Beggy. We shared beers, stories & starred at beer & bikes....a perfect start to the trip.
There are many more details to this rig, more to come.
Leaning in the brew house at Dillon Damn, dat's some fatties. Happy Birthday Dale!
After beers and a late entry to Leadville we had to test this baby out.

She did not dissappoint. Doug digs into the snowbank.

After an hour of fine tuning & playing around we finished our Dale's Pale Ale & hit the sack ready for the morning race.
