Horse Lover's Park - Phoenix, AZ

Horse Lover's Park - Phoenix

Day 1 - Turkey Burner p/b Bicycles of Phoenix

After a 2 week break from CX racing, the Dynamix crew was back at it for the Turkey Burner Cross Race sponsored by Bicycles of Phoenix.  It was a cold morning, but the kids quickly warmed up and were ready to race.  The course was challenging with many areas of loose dirt, gravel, and mud.  There was some stiff competition for both junior girls and boys with some teenagers in the mix.  On the start line, Avery realized she had a flat.  After quickly adding some air, she was ready to start.  There were many flats to be had on the day!  Unfortunately, Avery flatted again on the last lap.  But, she dug deep and kept with it to finish 3rd overall on the day.  Emma and Liam had solid races, both coming in 2nd.






Boys:  1st Caiden (no show for awards), 2nd Liam, 3rd Axel
Girls:  1st Morgan, 2nd Emma, 3rd Avery 


Day 2 - BH Bikes Cycle-Cross powered by SRAM p/b VR7

The team was back at it for day 2 of racing out at Horse Lover's Park for the BH Bike CX race.  After some bike maintenance overnight (mainly on the tires!), we were ready to race.  The race course was shortened and reversed from yesterday.  It proved to be just as challenging as day one.  Liam fought hard to get his first CX win of the season!  Emma battled newcomer Alyssa the entire race, but got passed in the last stretch.  It was Morgan for the win again, followed by Alyssa in 2nd, Emma in 3rd, and Avery in 4th.  Another fun CX racing weekend!
