The Idaho Challenged Athletes Foundation finished off their bike clinic with a series of races on the trails at the Nordic Center at Bogus Basin.
The event included a kids ride, a 5k, a 10k and a 20k race showcasing how adaptive sports have grown to where there can be multiple divisions with dozens of athletes competing on a difficult course that featured steep up and down sections.
“There was a couple of times I thought, ‘I’m not going to make it,’ but I just kept pushing, pedaling and hooting and hollering like a big old bear,” said Patrisio Torres of Rupert, he finished third in the 10k. “It was intense.”
