Toast wins 24 hours of Moab

A big congrats to my friend Josh Tostado (Toast) for winning the Super Bowl of ultra-endurance racing, the 24 hours of Moab. Chris Eatough and Tinker Juarez were some of the big names there. About 9-10 years ago, I remember first riding with Josh. I remember how he always humbled us with his talents. One such example was when he used to ride his 30lb orange steel Kona hardtail. Even with that heavy bike, he never seemed to have any trouble riding the steep and loose last half-mile up S. Fork Rd. towards Georgia Pass. Way back in the day, before The Great Flume was aptly named...we called it the Magic Flume. Anyways, Josh is a man of many talents. He also has won the 24 hours of Montezuma's Revenge several times, including setting a course record. And he's an incredible skier too. About 6 years back he missed qualifying for the Winter X Games halfpipe by .5 points.

VeloNews posted a little interview about Toast here.
