Footage from the mountain bike teams season

VAHSMTB Race 4

The Woodberry Mountain Bike Team headed to Harrisonburg to compete against 130 other riders on an extremely technical mountain bike course.  The course was three miles long and the varsity riders completed four laps and the JV riders did two.  We expected to be really challenged on this course given the lack of technical riding that we are able to do, however, the boys really stepped up with personal bests for almost every rider.   These boys represented Woodberry well and are looking forward to the final weeks preparation before the state championship at Blue Ridge School next Saturday.  As always, thanks for your support, the boys could not have advanced as quickly as they are without everyone's support and patience with this growing team!
