Old
Strawberry hauled five faithful team members down to
the Dirt Dirby in Barboursville, W.V., today. Athens
Bicycle mechanic Andy James (single speed) and
yours truly (vet expert) had podium finishes for the
day (third place for both of us), and team-mates Kevin
Deal
(H.S. men) and
Klara Hitchcock (sport women) made it onto the series
podium, with third- and second-place series finishes
respectively.
Corey Chambers (H.S. men) also made it onto the series
podium, with a fifth place finish. The King
and Queen of WVMBA -- Gunnar and Betsy Shogren -- were
smiling
with their prizes, as usual. Check out iplayoutside.com in
the coming days for full results, photos and series
results.
The
Athens
Bicycle Mountain Bike Team is thankful
to Kerr Distributing and Blue Moon Belgian White Ale
for making
this a fun and thirst-quenching season.
