The Roaring Fork Race Series is designed to fulfill head to head racing needs at a local level, introduce new athletes to racing and minimize travel costs. The series is open to all AVSC, Sunlight and Powderhorn racers up the age of 14. This past Sunday, we wrapped up our final RFRS race of the season with a fun dual and BBQ at Highlands. Congratulations to all the athletes and thank you to the coaches, parents, and community members that make it all happen!
