Soldier Hollow Mountain Bike Race

On October 22nd Ethan had another mountain bike race.  This time it was at Soldier Hollow near Heber City.  This was the cross country skiing venue for the 2002 Winter Olympics so it is a great venue.

The Pit Zone is like a little city.  There was a tower you can get up on and overlook the venue, so I got up there and took a picture of the Monkey's pit zone.

This is the team huddle where they yell "Who are we?" "Monkeys" "What do we want?" "The Moon!"

  Ethan's start went well.  He rode Bryan's bike and it was bigger so he was able to bike easier.  I think it made a difference but his chain came off once so it was a bit frustrating.

Ethan is up there somewhere.

This is his first lap.  It was fun to see him come by.

 There he goes starting his second lap.

 Finishing!

His ranking went to 33rd out of 72 riders in the Southern Region.

This is the drone footage of the Freshman race but we couldn't see Ethan.  It does show you the trail they took:  bike race, the second lap, finishing
