  Racing Racing & More Racing… Including a SC State Championship!!

  Uncategorized No Comments

  Over the past two weekends the ladies of GHS Every Woman Cycling have been to the races!

  April 10th Courtney McDonald, Heather Webber, Kelly Patton, & Nikki Zimmerman were found out at the Rock Hill Bicycle Club’s Patriot’s Trail Road Race.  It was a tough fast day with the Cat 4 Women racing with the 50+ Cat 4 Men… Let’s just say those men kept the pace high and the winners averaged 24 mph over the 47 mile course!

  

  April 11th was the Tsali Knobschorcher Mtn Bike Race in Bryson City, NC.  Jackie Batson represented GHS Every Woman in the Cat 2 Sport Division.  This was her first time racing in Cat 2 and Jackie brought home a 9th place!  It was “my first time racing cat 2.  An uphill sprint at the start made for a tough race on a hot day.  The difficult Fontana Lake overlook climb was added to this year’s course.”

  

  April 18th at the SC State Criterium Championships Kelly Patton made it down to Charleston for the races… And what did she do? She brought home a GHS Every Woman SC State Criterium 2010 Championship!  The field started out with about 25 women.  It was hot and fast with a pretty sharp turn in the course leaving only 15 to survive to the finish.  Kelly placed 4th overall and 1st from SC!  Way to go Kelly!!

  GHS Every Woman team member conquers Mt. Washington!

  Uncategorized No Comments

  On August 15th, 2009, GHS team member Kristen Weinacker conquered Mt. Washington in New Hampshire during the annual Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb. Mt. Washington is the highest peak in the Northeastern United States, and is known for its very erratic weather. The highest surface wind-speed ever recorded in the World has been recorded on this very peak at 231mph. The uphill climb averages 12% over the course of 7.6 miles, and has extensions of 18% with a final grudge of 22% at the finish. Kristen placed 11th overall in the woman’s division, and 2nd in the 20-34yr old category with a time of 1:24:44. ”Definitely the hardest hill-climb I’ve ever done, a very challenging experience. Every second was pure fun and torture. I had a lot of issues with cramping because the weather was exceedingly warm. I hope to re-race the course next year and learn from a few crucial mistakes I made this year. The view at the top was spectacular. I felt like I was on top of the world.”

  Congrats Kristen!!

  

  The end in site!
