Plaxton secures yet another win to take TR3 title

One of the strange things about endurance racing is that many times the hardest days are also the most memorable days for athletes. The type of person who signs up for epic events is there to be tested and the greatest rewards are to be found on the days when the course and conditions are the most difficult. By that measure, stage 3 of the 2011 TransRockies is going to be found on page of many scrapbooks as one of the best, toughest days ever.
