Ohio Dreams Camper Luca Shaw Earns #1

USA Cycling 2011 Gravity Mountain Bike Nationals
Beech Mountain, NC  9/24/2011

Brothers Walker and Luca Shaw spent almost their entire summer at Ohio Dreams Training in the new Seals Program and have been on a tear ever since. After a steller performance at the NBL Grands where the Luca went undefeated until taking second in the main, with Walker taking a fifth in the main and a second in cruiser.  

After the Grands the boys began training for the USA Cycling National Gravity Mountain Bike National Championships where we recieved the following update from their father Doug.

From their dad:  "Walker crashed in qualifying and barely made it to the 16th, Luca qualified in First so the brothers had to face off first round.  It was epic and Luca got him by .04 combined.  Luca went on without losing a round.  In downhill, both boys got on the podium Luca in third and Walker in fourth.  They looked strong.  Ohio Dreams!"

Congratulations to Luca and Walker Shaw and fellow Ohio Dreams camper and teammate Jimmy Leslie for their outstanding performances both on and off their bikes!
