ECO CHALLENGE 2010

A wet and very very muddy Eco Challenge this year. The cycling route in places was like a river, not to mention the actual river which had to be waded across! Two sections of the trail required carry, one a very tricky navigation of a recent landslide, which was somewhat like a muddy waterfall after the previous nights rain.
All of Biking Firsts riders took part in various teams for the cycling leg of the event.

Eventual winners where Rajkumar and his partner Aja Pandit. They left the biking start in third position, but managed to overtake the two other teams in front of them along the route. Second position team was Biking First’s Pratik Thapa who partnered Mandil, they completed the biking leg in a very fast 58 min, though both riders fell at one point in the course.
Third place team comprised of two Biking First Riders, Alin and Sunil Lama.....both first timers in this kind of event. They had fast runners and rode very well to finish in Third Place.

Congratulation all boys, and the two Saroj’s who came in fourth place, despite Saroj Rai having a bit of a fall and damaging his bike, better luck next time boys. Right now its back to training, and all boys where out at the Mountain Bike Madness race course this morning.....no rest just yet, still two races to go....
