Martin Versluys Wins Gold in His Category!
Wintergreen, Virginia

Congrats to one of our Nelson favorites, Martin Versluys! He and wife Kathy own The Acorn Inn B & B over on Adail Road.

Last night Kathy sent us a comment letting us know Martin won in the 60+ category of this past weekend’s Wintergreen Ascent. That is excellent.

Kathy says:

Hi guys!
Martin is ”King of the Wintergreen Hill Climb” this year in his category of ”60+”. Kind of exciting since it is only the 2nd year that it has become a State Championship and last year he took third place for the same ”old-guy” category.
Cheers! Kathy

Most of you have seen Martin cycling the roads of Nelson, but he actually cycles all over the world, cycling and competing in lots of different countries.

Congrats again Martin!
