Appalachian Classic Kids' Race
[Results] [Appalachian Classic Coverage]
Prior to the Appalachian Classic on Sunday morning, the future riders of America (AKA - the kids) took to the trails to compete in some kid against kid challenges led by Pro mountain bike rider Gunnar Shogren. Divided into age groups of 6 and under, 7-8, 9-10 and 11-12, the kids were challenged with a modified Appalachian classic course. The 11-12 year olds were tested a bit more with an even tougher course than the rest.
A special thanks goes out to Jack Downs for providing the pictures for this page as well as for all his hard work to make the Appalachian Classic such a wonderful event.
