Heroes of the Event
The people who have times shown in this section reflect the spirit of the GrapeRide as established and encouraged by Pete and Duncan. When coming upon a fellow entrant in need of assistance they stopped and helped. The times shown here reflect the rider's own estimate of their finish time had they not stopped and helped. We thank them.
