Joshua Ackley (# 2 ) would not only take the win in the Over the Hill A ( 30-50 ) class but would be the first rider to see the checkered flag , although it wasn ’ t easy . Off the start line , Ackley found himself in fifth place . By the second lap , Ackley and Chamberlain both found their groove , swapping fastest lap times
throughout the entire race , even finishing a lap with times less than 0.05 seconds apart . Ackley was able to accumulate enough small leads throughout the 30-minute race to earn first place , with an overall time of 26:01.388 , only 15 seconds ahead of Chamberlain . photo by Steph Vetterly VOL . 7 ISSUE 2 - FEBRUARY 2022 // PAGE 113
