As road season comes to a close, the cycling team would like to thank our coach John Gable for all the amazing support and direction he has provided us with this year. From first time riders to veterans, John has encouraged and helped everyone on the team. We wish him all the best. Thanks also to our graduating seniors, and good luck in your post- college lives!

The warm, sunny weather this weekend helped the UNH cycling team put up some great results at the much anticipated "Monte Philo Eroica" hosted by UVM. UNH had 6 top 5 finishes, including impressive wins in the Men's A criterium and Men's D road race. Next weekend the team will bring a full squad to the Eastern Championships at Dartmouth, which is shaping up to be one of the most epic events the ECCC has ever seen.

The UNH cycling team had impressive finishes in every race this weekend at the Boston Beanpot, but was edged out for the Division 1 victory by the larger numbers of UVM. Nonetheless a great time was had by all and two members of the team came away with official Beanpot winner's jerseys! UNH's performance was also helped by several new racers, who despite their inexperience performed excellently and contributed invaluable points to the team total. Next weekend UNH travels to Vermont to take on UVM on their home turf.

The UNH cycling team traveled to West Point, New York over the weekend to compete in the Army Spring Classic. Beautiful weather and good results made this a great weekend for the team, with strong finishes in every category. Next weekend the team will travel to Massachusetts to defend their title at the Boston Beanpot, one of the most anticipated races of the season!

The UNH cycling left Friday afternoon for the annual spring break trip in Florida. The team will make a stay in New York to race Saturday and Sunday but continue on to warmer weather Sunday night.

UNH Rider Stephanie White took second place in the collegiate race today in Kansas despite suffering a flat that dropped her from the leaders and forced her into the pit for a neutral bike change.

After the 2007 ECCC MTB Championships in Plattekill, NY this past weekend, UNH ended the season in 2nd place overall. UNH team members took home several medals for individual standings:

Amy Schwarzenberg: First place overall in the Womens B category
David Schwarzenberg: First place overall in the Mens B category
James "Angus" Rose: Third place overall in the Mens B category

With many other high finishers, this has been without a doubt one of the strongest MTB seasons in UNH Cycling history. In two weeks, the UNH riders in Men's and Women's A categories travel to Banner Elk, NC for the Collegiate National Championships. Thank you to all UNH Cycling team members and supporters for this great season!
