MAY(HEM)

Although May has come and gone, Mom & Pop Racing left their mark on the Michigan and Ohio racing scenes!


On May 7th Wendy, Emma, Ryan, and Kim made their way out to the 15th Annual Hare Racer held at Heritage Park in Adrian, MI. This is a great grass roots race held on one of the best, yet least ridden trails in southeastern Michigan.


In true M&P fashion our racers shelled the competition with Wendy taking first in the Women’s Class (on a single speed) and Emma finishing a solid second. Kim took second in the Men’s Class (on a single speed). Ryan then lined up in the 9-10 year class. He pushed the leader the entire race and finished in second place by 15 seconds.


Vultures Knob in Wooster, OH was the second race venue where Mom & Pop Racing made an appearance at in May. On the 21st, Dave took to the single track in his second race of the year. As always Dave left everything that he had out on the course, which put him on the podium in 4th place.


Next up was trip north to the Tour de Frankenmuth held in and around downtown Frankenmuth, MI on May 28th. John and Emma donned the M&P kit and took to the road, with both racing very well. Emma finished second in the Women’s Junior 17-18 Division. John in his first true road race finished a respectable 25th.


June is sure to be packed with racing for M&P. Both Jimmie and Melissa have laid out a pretty aggressive race plan for June. Brad and Will’s tri season will be revving up and the and rest of our team will be making appearances at races and events near you, to include the American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure on June 11th. So stay tuned for more updates on Michigan’s only TRUE grassroots race team!


We’d also like to thank our generous sponsor’s for their support! THANK YOU!!
