Top 3 Women
Me and Luca Rostagno- winner of the Open Men's Category
After a week of hard riding and tough competition, I was able to finish at the top of the podium. I was closely followed by Katia Tomatis, who is a very strong but super friendly competitor. Eric and I had a really great time during our stay in Italy and at Ironbike.
Thank You so much to:
Roberto, Vanna, and Ginny: For having us in their awesome stone tower home and being amazing hosts before the Ironbike.
The Organizers and Volunteers at Ironbike who work extremely hard all year to put on a week of "The world's hardest mountain bike raid"
Magura- Matt, Jeff, and Jude for giving me GREAT forks and brakes that can withstand the rough conditions of this race, and for their support!!
PTLG- Rob, Neeraj, and the rest of the staff to help me out with my aches and pains!!
The Kobins- My parents, Sofia, and Ulrika for coming all the way from Sweden to follow us, cheer us on, and provide support during the race. TACK!!!

Wow, what a ride. Congrats to you and Eric on another great accomplishment. I think the next time I make it out to San Jose, I'm gonna stick to dinner and wine because there is no way I'll be able to even try and keep up with you anymore!
So awesome! You rock Lou!
