Final race of the season at Eagle Bay XC with the Adirondack Cross Country Race Series 🏁❄️

Challenging conditions throughout the day with a wet track that made us have to battle through belt slippage.

Kyle Such competed in multiple classes and had a strong day overall. In Semi Pro Improved, he was battling for 2nd before missing a corner in the tough visibility conditions, but still rode it out to finish 4th out of 12. He also took 4th in SOO and 5th in the 70-mile Semi Pro Stock race out of a field of 11 riders.

Gene Bouthiette had an excellent weekend, bringing home 2nd place finishes in both Sport Improved and Sport Stock with consistent, strong rides.

We’re really happy with how both ice setups performed this weekend and feel like we finally found the speed we’ve been chasing on the ice.

Season Points:
🏆 Gene - 1st in Sport Improved
🥈 Gene - 2nd in Sport Stock
🥈 Kyle - 2nd in SOO
4️⃣ Kyle - 4th in Semi Pro Improved
4️⃣ Kyle - 4th in Semi Pro Stock

Great way to wrap up the season. Huge thank you to the Adirondack XC crew for putting on a great series, and as always, thank you to our family, friends, and sponsors for all the support throughout the season.

Another weekend of great racing at the Granite State XC race with the Adirondack Cross Country Race Series in Pittsburg, NH.

This 7.3 mile course had a great mix with high speeds, tight turns, and really rough moguls.

Gene #10 competed in Sport Improved and Sport Factory 600. He took home a 4th in Sport Improved and 5th in Sport Factory 600.

Kyle #68 and Ernie #21 competed in Semi-Pro 600 Improved, Semi-Pro 600 Factory, and the SOO.

Kyle placed 7th in Semi-Pro 600 Improved (Unofficial) , 4th in Semi-Pro 600 Factory, and 4th in the SOO.

Ernie placed 6th in Semi-Pro 600 Improved (Unofficial), 7th in Semi-Pro 600 Factory, and 7th in the SOO.

Not quite the results we wanted this week, but we look forward to the next race in Eagle Bay.

Also, a bittersweet announcement: Ernie will not be finishing the remainder of the season as he focuses on his family, who are expecting their first child within the month. We send our best wishes to him and his family during this exciting milestone.

As always a thank you to all our friends, family, and our sponsors.

Second race of the season and the first weekend of racing with Adirondack Cross Country this season.
Conditions kept changing throughout the day, and the racing brought plenty of challenges, including a red flag and restart with staggered starts in Semi Pro Open, making final finishing positions unclear for that class.

Results on the weekend:
In Semi Pro Open, Kyle and Ernie battled through a tough race, with finishing positions TBD following the restart.

In the SOO, Kyle took 1st and Ernie followed with a strong 2nd.

In Semi Pro Stock, the race was red flagged after Lap 1 due to unsafe conditions and was unable to restart due to time of day. Ernie and Kyle were both fast in the beginning of the race and will continue that momentum into the next race.

Gene competed in both Sport Open and Sport Improved, earning 3rd place finishes in both classes after solid rides all weekend.

Overall, it was a productive weekend for the team— finding speed and getting laps in as the season continues. Huge thank you to the Adirondack Cross Country Race Series crew and Ken Murphy for all the hard work putting on a great race.

Thanks as always to our sponsors, friends, and family for the continued support.

Not a lot of photos were taken this weekend, but we’ll be sharing more as we get them.

On to Salisbury, NY on 2/14🏁❄️
