The Bermuda Bicycle Association’s Fat Tire Massive’s third race of the season finally got the seasonal high winds and downpour that separate the hardcore cyclist from the rest as racing took place at the Lagoon Park.
Thunderstorms spared the event which saw 83 racers test their mud skills.

Male and Female 13 to 15 and Open 30 minute classes, ran together as usual for a total field of 28.
