Profile Road Race - "Hell of the North"

The Burke bike team raced at Profile School in Franconia, NH yesterday. It was a 23.5 mile HILLY ride, which was riddled with pot holes, sandy streets, AND great views of the White Mountains! It was a beautiful, warm afternoon for a road race. For results, Moriah and Liam were both 5th in their C groups. The rest of our crew were solidly in the middle of the pack - not bad for a bunch of ski racers who have barely road biked and raced only a few times! Way to go!

 The prep scene - bikes everywhere, Moriah checking her tires

 The team! L to R: Jack, Liam, McKenna, Moriah, Jordan, Yale, Fredi S, Chris, Matt H

 Jordan - always smiling :)
