FROM Jed:
Hi Folks,
Just wanted to let people know how the race went this past weekend at Lees Mcrae.
We had 4 riders go up for the races, and brave the cold weather, high winds, and killer climbs.
On Saturday three of us competed in the Team Time Trial: Mike Small, Brendan Dillow and myself. The course went from Blowing rock up to the entrance for Grandfather Mountain. There was a 20-30 mile an hour head/cross wind for a lot of it and it was 38 degrees when we started. It was tough!
We still managed to score a 4th place finish and we were 3rd in division two schools.
Later that afternoon we had a Individual hill climb and what a climb it was. The course went from Valle Cruces straight up for 5.5 miles with sections that were up to 13% grade. Lee meroney road a great race and was Second in the Men's C class.
The three of us who had ridden the TTT were a bit fatigued, but still road strong with a 10th place finish by me being our best result. I was 4th in the Division 2 schools.
On Sunday Lee road another great race and won the Men's C class.
We now have a weekend off and then conference Championships in Brevard. We are very excited and like our chances of doing well.
Jed
