Sunday, May 17, 1998, Grand Vue Park, Moundsville
Grand Vue Park Mountain Bike Challenge
What a beautiful day and a beautiful park for mountain bike riding.
The racers at Grand Vue Park were treated to a meticulously groomed 5
mile course that contained plenty of wooded single track along with
mowed fields that opened the course up for spectacular mountain top
views.
The racing consisted of staggered starts for a variety of classes from
the single lap novices to the 4 lap experts. For the young racers they
even threw in a 2.5 mile race for the 10-15 year-olds.
