The Boise Braves Mountain Bike Team (BBMTB) had another successful mountain bike race this past weekend.The Galena Gallop race number #2in the Idaho Cycling League, started and finished at Galena Lodge, north of Sun Valley, Idaho. The race day started at 28 degrees which made warm-ups a little chilly. By the time the girls raced, it was 84 degrees and we had to worry about some riders with heat exhaustion. Galena was the most technical course that the Idaho Cycling League has designed thus far. Each race throughout the season will be 10-15% more difficult than the last. The entire team fought hard with many individual victories and personal bests to produce an overall team victory against twenty-three (23) teams around the State of Idaho. Every racer counts as BBMTB won the overall competition by just one point, beating out Wood River High School.

We continue to build “Strong Minds, Strong Bodies and Strong Character”!
