UPHILL RACE RESULTS ARE IN!

On Sunday, June 15, about 250 bicyclists pedaled their way 8 miles up to the top of Whiteface Mountain. Two weeks prior, many tried it on foot. Some participants tried both races.

Congratulations to super couple Robert Dunkin Douglas and Kim Douglas, of Honeoye Falls, New York, for being crowned this year's King and Queen of the Mountain. Robert posted the best overall combined times for both races, coming in first in the Foot Race and third in the Bike Race. Kim posted the best combined times in the women's division.
