East Canyon

We certainly had numbers for both the 4's and 5's. 
The weather looked menacing but it cooperated during the whole race and waited until we were back at the cars before snowing.
Most of the 4's were content to parade out to the turn around and back to the climb before letting the fireworks begin. Matt wasn't about to let that happen. After setting a good pace up the first climb and then sending attack after attack on the way out, we knew not much would stick but wanting to soften the legs of a few of the good sprinters that like to go to the front and bring back the attacks. Besides, who really wants to ride for 2.5 hours in z 3 just to sprint it out? 
 On the way back, we attacked some more and even got a little help from the Spin boys to help animate the race, but in the end it came down to the final climb. A few got off the front and Tyler brought some of them back, but not all. We had 3 in the top 10 in the 4's and 3 in the top 10 in the 5's with Luper taking a strong 2nd.
