HilltopperMTB Concludes First Race Season
On October 16th at Cochran’s Ski Area in Richmond, VT local mountain bikers Lydia Reimert, Layla McGarvin, and Nora LaValley ended the 4-race season series ranked in the top five in their respective categories. Reimert, an 8th grader from East Haven, ranked 4th in Category A of the Vermont Youth Cycling League, including clubs from around the state. McGarvin, from Barnet, and LaValley, from Sutton, both 6th graders, completed their seasons ranked 4th and 5th respectively in Category 5-6.
All three racers participated this fall in HilltopperMTB, the local mountain bike club for boys and girls in grades 5-12 operated by the St. Johnsbury Recreation Department in partnership with St. Johnsbury Academy. HilltopperMTB came about this past summer when three St. Johnsbury Academy employees – Joe Fox, Chris Dussault, and James Bentley – decided to expand the existing Academy Mountain Bike Club to include competitive racing and a youth program open to all area students.
