U.S. Cup Unification Race Puts Two Titles on the Line
The U.S. Cup is pleased to announce with just nineteen days till the final showdown at the U.S. Cup unification race on Sept 20th, we have added a “1 Day U.S. Cup Championship Challenge” title along with the “Unification Series” Title.
This now means that the U.S. Cup presented by Specialized is set to be a show down of the who’s who in mountain bike racing. The unification race will pit top Kenda Cup East and Kenda Cup West series riders against one another for ultimate bragging rights with a U.S. Cup Unification Series title and jersey on the line to both Pro and Amateurs riders.
The 1 Day U.S. Cup Championship Challenge, will allow racers who may be outside the top 15 in series points or who may have not of raced a US Cup series event, to walk in and go for a one day title, if they can beat the best of the best! The 1 Day U.S. Cup Championship Challenge winners will receive a custom award # plate and have the right to place a custom designed U.S. Cup logo on their race kit for the 2010 season and beyond.
The shootout is open to all riders, whether they competed in the series or not, however only the top 15 riders in each class from either series standings will be awarded starting points to vie for the coveted “U.S. Cup Unification” title and Champions jersey.
In the men’s Pro field its Sho-Air/Specialized Sid Taberlay winning the west going up against East Coast rider Sam Koerber of the Gary Fisher 29’er Crew for the US Cup unification title. In the women’s pro field its California transplant Krista Park of the Incycle Team winning the Kenda Cup West going up against East Coaster Jaime Dinkins of the Motor Mile Racing team. There also some classic battles lined up for the amateur class’ that should make for some great racing.
CX meets XC-Unification Weekend.
Also in the true spirit of unifying cycling, the U.S. Cup series is working in conjunction with So. Cal CX Prestige Series to offer the “C-X-C” unification race. That means you can race your cross bike on Saturday with the kickoff of the 2009-10 So. Cal Prestige Series, (www.socalcross.org) and then go for the U.S. Cup unification mountain bike title on Sunday. It’s a great way to transition into the fall cyclocross season, or if you’re new to Cyclo cross to get exposure with Cross clinics and racing.
The U.S. Cup series has teamed up with the “Duke”-The John Wayne Cancer Foundation. in order to “Unify” all cyclists in the fight against cancer. Look for some of JWCF sunscreen samples in your Kenda grab bags, as well as some great T’s, hats and other swag to be raffled off during the day. (www.jwcf.org).
Also for all you Hopp Heads, Stone Brewery will be offering some really cool gifts and prizes for the Unification Race winners, maybe even a couple cold ones for after the race. https://www.stonebrew.com/
