RSC brought a strong crew to Snowshoe for Round #6 of the West Virginia Enduro Series, and our racers were ready for a big day in the backcountry. With 14 RSC riders among 114 competitors, the team took on a challenging six-stage course packed with long climbs, technical terrain, fast descents, and plenty of West Virginia adventure.

We could spend all day talking about the incredible job our kids did, but that would only tell part of the story. We ride in the heat, the cold, the rain, and the dust because, first and foremost, we love to ride.

Coach Justin is back with a recap of the Stokesville race!

The entire team did really well, proud of you all!

The first race of the DHSE Series for 2025.  It arrived early in the season, before official RSC practices began.  All of the riders participating worked through the winter to be ready for this first race.  The race course was short and fast, so all top finishers had to have near perfect runs.  All of our RSC racers demonstrated grit and commitment for a very successful early season race weekend.
