Kyle the Kid at Bike Jam

Kyle Obrien of the Virginia Beach Wheelmen raced the Junior 15/16 race early in the morning. Since the Juniors all started together the 17/18 guys started the race fast, but Kyle maintained and scored a 6th place in his race.

Then the last race of the day was the Cat 4. Large field, fast race but Kyle raced smart and got to the front. On the last lap in the S-turn he took off after a solo break. No one followed. He cruised in for a stunning 2nd place finish.

This is a kid to watch. I'm just glad he's wearing our jersey.

Your jersey but our shorts.

I agree, if he can keep off the soccer field and just ride, who knows how far he can go.
He's got a very knowledgeable coach and supportive mom and teammates to help him succeed.
