Jenn, Peter, Zack and Terry made their ways down to Lippman Park in Wawarsing for the "Timber Ridge XC" kick-off race for this year's NYSMTB series.  A hot sunny 90+ degree day with three laps for our Cat1 on the five-mile nearly entirely singletrack course, good thing there wasn't a fourth lap (even for the Elite) even if anyone beforehand thought they might like some greater distance, as the competition was tough, and the chances to coast or hydrate were few.  In his debut in the 50+ field Zack took the Win with a one-minute margin over the always-tough Brian Kelley out of the Pawling Shop team, while Terry clawed his way back up through the field to take 3rd.  Jenn finished her race uncertain about position, only to learn the happy surprise that she too took top of the podium with a Win in her Cat1 (19+) field...a really good day, great to have four NAVers there flying some colors!
