Georgia State Championship series #3 – Ft Yargo trails – Winder, Ga

Well the rain finally caught up with the series at Winder the morning of the race although it did stop raining shortly after the start. Some mod’s were made to the course (cutting out monster mile) and some laps were cut (cat 2 to one lap) but overall although it was wet, it wasn’t as bad as it could have been. The 12 mile course drains well and lap times were still just a few minutes longer than normal.

Hitting the trails first were the 19-39 cat 1 racers and it was Benjamin Fountain carrying home the top honors while in the women’s field it was Abby Hobbs claiming the number one box on the day.

Many thanks to the White County mountain bike team for helping at the road crossings and to all who came out and braved the wetness.

Next round will be at Talking Rock trails near Jasper on May 7th, see you there!
