Vance McMurray rocking the Y bike at the Park City Point to Point
Despite having a difficult weekend Sawicki still managed to complete 9 laps of the 15-mile course and completed the fastest single lap of any woman in the race. Vance McMurry of Austin, Texas came within one mile of the total which was close enough to win him a $4,000 prize package.
The prize package includes an Ellsworth Enlightment frame as well as:
Niterider: Two sets of lights
Magura: One set of brakes
Ergon: Back pack & grips
DT Swiss Prize Package
Shimano: One Pair of XTR pedals
Okole Stuff: Six Jars of Stuff
Max Muscle Sports Nutrition: Pua's Endurance Nutrition Stack
Nomad: Portable pressure washer
Adidas: One Pair of Supernova sunglasses
InFinit: $200.00 worth of Pua's Race Fuel
Please join us in congratulating Vance McMurray as the winner of “Pontificate Pua’s Pedaling” contest! “I really appreciate it and was bummed to hear the details of Pua's tough time. I saw her at the Park City Point to Point and was excited for her at the 24 hours of Moab" McMurray stated.
MTBracenews would like to point out that the winnings of this contest could not have gone to a more deserving mountain bike racer. In September, McMurray traveled from Austin to Park City, Utah to ride the 75-miles of high-mountain singletrack and one of the most challenging mountain bike races in the U.S., the Park City Point to Point, on what can only be described as a "vintage" Trek Y bike circa 1996. "We wanted to give Vance a new bike after the race just for riding our event on the Y bike so I'm happy to see that he won the Ellsworth frame" said Park City Point to Point race co-director Brian Hester.
