Dynamix Devo: Race Around the Farm

Race Around the Farm at Mother Nature's Farm in Gilbert

Day 1

Day 1 of the Race Round the Farm CX Race was a blast! The venue was on a privately owned and operated working farm, complete with farm animals. The kids were particularly enchanted with the turkeys. The course itself was challenging, but tons of fun with run-ups, tough climbs, tight turns, and long straight-aways. The sunny 60 degree weather couldn't have been better. It was a fast start, and the pace continue high for the entire race. Liam lead the junior boys for the entire race, coming in 1st. Barrett had a tough time out, riding 2 laps on a flat. He swapped bikes and kept moving, finishing 5th overall. Emma lead the girls all the way to the finish, coming in an impressive 3 minutes and 42 seconds over 2nd place Alyssa, with Avery coming in for the final podium spot in 3rd.

Race Round the Farm - Day 2

Day 2 was just as fun as day one, although decidedly more challenging. The course was changed up a bit and proved to be tough for everyone out there - adults and juniors alike. The Dynamix crew went out strong. Liam lead the entire race, but was in close contention with Randy on the first lap. Barrett was just behind the leaders in 4th and held on strong the entire race, missing the podium by just a few seconds. Emma and Alyssa battled it out in the first 2 laps, but Alyssa began to gain distance on Emma and finished 1st. All 3 Dynamix riders had such a great time in the first race they decided to stick around and race again in Cat 4/5! All in all, it was a great weekend!!
