1st X4 miitti 2009

12.6. – 14.6.2009 Äänekoski

The first finnish X4 meeting took place under a reasonably good weather, we got some rain on Friday and at night before Sunday.
During the ride-out on Saturday, all the other program and packing for homeward ride it was a nice and warm summer weather.

Saturday ride was ridden via Sumiainen and Konginkangas, we stopped for a coffee by Matilanvirta bridge.

When we got back to the premises it was a time for triathlon: darts, skiing and some beer&snack. The rules were somewhat modified though… It formed up to be a German – Finland duell, with minimal point difference all the wy to the final. The end result was a tie! Right behind the two winners were Kai and Jari.

Here are all the nominations:
Shortest distance, Ladies: Merja (392km)
Shortest distance, Men: Ahti (280km)
Longest distance, Ladies: Anja (739km)
Longest distance, Men: Zippoman (897km)
Best bike: Zippoman
X4 Cup, two winners: Ahti (20 points) and Zippoman (20 points)
Congratulations!

All in all there were 16 bikers among of them were 12 X4:s.
A group of four arrived from Germany, they also cleaned up the prize table quite effectively 🙂

Sauna was hot, water in the lake refreshing and all services worked smoothly.
Thanks to the organizing team and the host, Pate!
Next year there’ll be the second X4 meeting, at the same time. Mark your calenders!
