Kerry from K-Lite Dynamo Powered Lights had planned a trip to America, starting in Banff. He captured some fantastic conversations, the Grand Depart meeting, and racers traveling down the route in a number of different locations. Here is a compilation of his very long day including a few photos the day before.
The Day Before
The Grand Depart Meeting
The morning meeting with Crazy Larry had a bit of humor and a moment of silence for the late endurance legend, Mike Hall.
Crazy Larry and Jay Petervary sending off riders at the start of the race. Jay would end up starting his individual Time Trial roughly 2 days after the Grand Depart.
Racers On Route
As the day wore on, racers started to endure a steady rain.
Crazy Larry spent a small fortune on rice crispy treats for the entire field.
The first resupply location on the Tour Divide, Boulton Creek.
