  Saturday’s race at River Falls in Marietta, SC attracted 37 women to race, 22 in the Pro, Cat 1, 2, 3 field & 17 in Cat 4.  Robin Blackburn & Nikki Zimmerman of GHS Every Woman participated in this race that consisted of 3 laps around a 6 mile course of rolling hills culminating in a 1 mile climb to the finish.  It was a beautiful day and tough race.  Both ladies completed the race and Nikki brought home 6th place!

  We’d also like to congratulate and thank Jenn Young of Greenville Women’s Cycling & Jeni Schumacher of Cyclists Against Cancer for competing alongside us!

  Sunday was the final race of the series back at Donaldson.  35 Women showed up (19 Pro, 1, 2, 3  & 16 Cat 4) and the officials kept us all together for 4 laps on this 7 mile course.  The first lap was clocked at 23.8 mph and the entire race averaged 21 mph.  It was exciting  for Nikki Zimmerman who brought home GHS Every Woman’s first podium spot of 2010 with a 3rd place finish among Cat 4 women.  She also moved up to 4th overall for the entire series.

  Results from all of the 2010 Greenville Spring Training Series races can be found here.

  Overall it was a very successful series for the ladies of GHS Every Woman.  We garnered 19 total finishes with 10 top 10s, & 3 top 4s!

  Thanks again to the Greenville Spinners & Hincapie Sportswear for hosting & all the officials & volunteers who put in long hours to make it such a success!!

  The RamSpinners rode the Turtle Trail at Paris Mountain on Sunday Nov. 1.  We had a mix of beginners and experienced trail riders.  We enjoyed beautiful weather and fall foliage.  The kids learned mountain biking skills such as how to ride over rocks and roots, how to ride through turns, how to change gears, and how to use brakes in different conditions.  The trail was a little muddy!
