Words by Tom Fanning | Using The BIB since : April 2020

Well I have been using my bib shorts for several months now with great comfort.

Back in August I decided to put them to the ultimate test and entered the Hoodoo500. This was both a IRL and virtual event taking place in the state of Utah. The competitors had to complete 510 miles and 30,000 feet of elevation gain.

I entered on the Zwift platform and surprisingly finished the virtual event in first place taking 31 hours to complete it. For the most part I rode continuously without a sleep break. The shorts worked wonderfully and I will certainly  need to get in an order for a few more pairs for my next event in November.

The event offered a virtual and IRL category and people competed in both separately because of the Pandemic state restrictions. My buddy from Ohio was able to travel to the actual event and compete but I was not because of my states mandates. Incidentally, my buddy Gianni won the race in his category.
