King of the Mountain, Part 4 Results!

Without further delay ...

The weather was perfect for some self abuse on the hills surrounding our wonderful town. We were stoked to have a few new club members show up and throw down with us!

In the club members category, newcomer Mike W. won all three climbs closely followed by another KOM rookie. John Marshall. That left veteran club member Chris Donohue to clean up third on the peaks. Chris, I guess a house full of kids for the weekend was no help!

The race team members category had a new addition as well. Junior racer Dillon Van Wart upgraded to join us. Although he received no points on the day, he was not last on any of the climbs by any means. No, no, no - last place on all three climbs was reserved for BJ. The winner of each of the three peaks, to no one's surprise, was our club V.P. and newly crowned Cat 1 MTB NJ State Champion Dave Kahl. Second place was a bit of a battle between our favorite shop owner Mike Hoek and also newly crowned Cat 2 MTB NJ state champ Jason Grossi. Jason took third to Mike on the first climb, then second on the following two.

The overall points standings are as follows:
