SANDY BEACH, AB - The famous Numb Bum 24 hour Ice Race, sanctioned by the Alberta Endurance Ice Racing Association (AEIRA) was held in Sandy Beach, AB on Feb. 14-15.

A total of 42 teams entered the competition that started at noon on Saturday and ended at the same time Sunday.

The 14km track was rough during the first couple hours due to the frozen slush caused by the previous week's cool temperatures but as it got colder the track got perfect.

KTM Canada – Cycle Works Team 35 riders Patrick Beaulé, Todd Lindahl and Joe Pruden rode very well, fast and they were extremely consistent during the whole 24 hours.

After that they started to gain some time on the second place team and crossed the finish line in first place with about a seven-lap margin of victory.
