Estrella Hedgehog Hustle

It was another exciting MBAA race this past weekend out at the Estrella Hedgehog Hustle in Avondale.  We couldn't have asked for better racing weather - sunny skies and temperatures in the 70's.  The fields were large - breaking the all time attendance record for this venue!  The Dynamix crew was out with 4 racers this time.  Representing the team in the junior boys 12-14 category was Karson, who was looking to move up in position after a solid 20th place finish at McDowell.  He had an excellent race - fast off the line and consistent for all 4 laps.  He finished 9th overall, bettering his position by 11 places over his last race.  Amazing job Karson!!

Barrett, Liam & Emma were up next in the junior boys and girls 9-11, all going off together.  All 3 were very quick off the line, entering the single track in the top 4.  Liam got a lead on the first climb and never looked back.  He finished 1st overall coming in 33 seconds ahead of 2nd place.

Barrett was out strong as well, gaining distance on most of the field during the long first climb.  He stayed strong and consistent, finishing 4th overall - moving up 2 places from last race.

Emma was right up with the boys at the start hitting the single track ahead of the other girls in her field.  She maintained her lead and built on it with each lap.  She came in over 7 minutes ahead of 2nd.

It was a wonderful weekend of racing!  We are very proud of all 4 racers and the progress they continue to make.  Each one of them is working hard and getting better every day.  They are an amazing group of kids that we are privileged to work with.  It is a lot of hard work, but we all have great fun and can't wait for the next race!!  A special thank you to Deanna Young for another set of amazing photos...you rock!!
