  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.

  GHS Every Woman rider takes 5th at Uwharrie Wheelmen Road Race!

  News, Race Results Comments Off

  At the “Out Like a Lion” weekend in Salisbury, NC, the Greenville Hospital’s Every Woman cycling team showed up to race!  Team member Kristen Weinacker took home 5th place in the Uwharrie Wheelmen Road Race Saturday March 21st.

  Kristen: “I was able to hang with the big girls each of the 5 laps, and finally was “dropped” around the last corner, because I corner slowly, with a little bit less than a mile to go. I really should have placed higher, I know I was capable. Cornering is something I need to work on. I’m the last one making the corner and the girls on the front of the line are already sprinting for home. Someone should have told them to wait up for me! But, I definitely gained some confidence and am looking forward to the next one.”

  Teammate Elizabeth Brady was also there representing team GHS Every Woman and riding in support of Kristen.
