2008 Bell Team Race Results

The 2007 Ouachita Challenge will always be remembered for all the excitement it provided.  There was rain, mud, great trails and even an ambulance.  Riders experienced every type of pain imaginable from killer cramps to kidney stones to stitches in the ER.  In the end there were broken bikes and some broken bodies, but no broken spirits.  Even through all the heartache and torture the Ouachita Challenge delivered, I have no doubts that everyone from Bell & Company Mountain Biking will be back next year ready to take on the mountains, the rocks, the roots, the creek crossings, the weather and even their own personal fears and limitations.  Congratulations to everyone that competed in this fierce event; the Ouachita Challenge is as hard as it gets.
