For those of you who went with us to the Monson Mass Hillclimb, here's a tid-bit of information. The person in this photo is Molly Carbon. (She is seen getting ready to make a run on the hill) Molly lives in Bellingham Massachusetts, she started riding dirt bikes at age 6, and hill climbs at age 8.
In 2008 she broke a femur and could not attend the Nationals that year. The 2009 Nationals were held in Minnesota so she started saving her pennies and counting the days. She competed in the 125 class and 250 class through out the year in New England. When it came time for the Nationals her father and her headed across the country.
She is 19 years old and the "2009 AMA Racing National Hillclimb Womens Class Champion"
Congratulations Molly.
