Takin' some heat in the Grove

HAC roadies Adrian, Dave, Eric, Isaiah, and Joe braved the Nordic Ski Hill climb and took on the Fox River Grove Cycling Challenge last Saturday, which, by all accounts, lived up to the “challenge” in its name. With temperatures hitting summer heat for the first time since 2008 and no breeze to speak of, the climb blew fields apart. Dave says, “THIS RACE COURSE ROCKED! A definite must attend next year.” And Joe shares this two-part photo race report. The vomit on the side of the road next to the descent said all that could be said about that race, but we promise, it wasn’t ours.
