The UMCA 24-hour Time Trial was held in Port Byron, Illinois. It started at 6:30 am on September 2, 2006 and finished at 6:30 am on September 3, 2006.

ABOUT THE COURSE:

The day lap was approx. 72 miles with approx. 2015 ft of climbing. Some riders rode that loop two times, others three. That loop closed at 2:30 pm.

The mid lap was approx. 20 miles with approx. 697 ft of climbing. Riders rode that loop as many times as they could until it closed at 5:30 am.

The short lap was approx. 8 miles with approx. 325 ft of climbing. Most riders got 1 or 2 laps before the 6:30 am closing time.

MY RESULTS:

I completed 287.3 miles (462.4 kms)in 24-hours, putting me into second place in my category, but because the girl who placed first was awarded a trophy for being first among all the women, I was then given the first place award in my category .
