Participants and Friends,
The 3rd Annual 12 Hours of Bradbury Mountain was a great mix of family riders, racers, & MTB enthusiasts. This year we had riders from all over the Northeast, from Washington DC, Vermont, Virginia, & our good friends from Canada returned. THe racing was sprited and friendly. Exactly what this event has traditionally been about. Our volunteers were very dedicated! We were able to donate $2650 in 2009 and contstruct the new website for the Park: www.bradburymountain.com The Park is making great strides this year with the biggest and most enthusiastic Adopt A Trail program yet. Thanks for all your support and we're looking forward to this year's event.
Happy Trails!

"I had to write just to let you know how much I LOVED the 12HRs of Bradbury, and that really I appreciate that you put together such a memorable day. I cant wait for the 2008 edition (going solo). The organization FAR exceeded any other XC race (Maine MTB or EFTA OR Route 66) in terms of results/times etc., there seemed to be ZERO confusion amongst riders/teams/and crew members which makes for a nice stress free, positive atmosphere." - Seth Chenard -
"Everything about the race was perfect. The course was as perfect as it could have been. Easily the most enjoyable time I have had on a mountain bike. Every lap I was looking forward to ripping that course. The mile markers where a fantastic idea. It was a great help, especially when the sun went down. It was very motivating getting encouragement each time around through the tent. I loved the spectors and the atmosphere throughout the day and into the night."

"Kudos to the crew for one of the most memorable races of all time. What a great way to end the bike racing season. Hope that this is the first annual in a line of many, many more to come." - Jim Hill -
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Bikers went fast. And they went slow. There was a cacophony of "old man noises" heard after about 8 p.m. And it wasn't pretty. I imagine it was much like backstage after a Rolling Stones concert, with less groupies. 83 people showed up for the first race! How incredible is that? Really shows that Pat H. identified a niche, a strong market need. Well done. The torches, fire and string trio were classy touches, as were the nicely etched beer mugs for 1st places." - Matt Wick-
"Totally agree with all those praising this event. Katy and I had a great time. Great course and atmosphere, really can't think of anything that should have been done differently (other than me riding just a wee bit faster...). The results were even posted online fast, which is always a nice bonus. Great job by the other teams and huge props to the truly bionic one, Jim Hill." - Nate Crooker -
