Race #1 – Fort Ord 2017

Race Report:

Race #1 February 25, 2017 Fort Ord

ECHS earned a third place podium spot as a team! With 14 racers, ECHS was the smallest Division 1 team (the minimum is 12 racers) – other teams ranged from 17 to 38 racers.  Truly an outstanding effort by ALL members of the team!OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

The course had a rolling on-road start before quickly
entering the trails and was about 6 miles long.  The trails were fast and had lots of fun, twisty single-track through the trees.  Freshman raced for 2 laps and Sophomore and JV riders did 3.

Impressively, out of the 14 racers, 5 were on the podium and 8 were in the top 10 in their category.OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
