Deer Valley Pedalfest
Park City,  June 10, 2006

After two days of heavy thunderstorms had soaked the mountains of Deer Valley, June 10 dawned cool and clear. Despite the recent rain, the long singletrack loop over Deer Crest and Snowtop was just damp enough to be interesting. The riding was exciting. And if the racers could take their eyes off the fast twisting singletrack for a minute, the views were awesome. Fifteen UtahMountainBiking.com riders reported to Deer Valley, with 13 scoring points for the team.

Tyler Margetts flies back toward the finish line
as he takes 1st place in Beginner Men 19-29.

Left:  Dave Larsen rolls a
switchback descending Deer Crest
towards the Pipeline. Dave took
2nd place in Sport Men 16-18.

Right: Justin Griffin prepares to tackle
the monster climb up to Deer Crest as
he captures another 1st place in 10-12.

Lynn Stephens broke his chain but
soldiered on to take 9th in Men 50+.

Ben Hutchings flies into a turn on his
way to 6th place in Sport Men 19-29.

Kellie Williams is back in the saddle,
riding to 5th place in Sport 16-18.
Left:  Bruce Argyle tries (unsuccessfully)
to lose Craig on the downhill, finishing 
8th in Men 50+.

Right:  Aaron Smith turns in
another great ride to finish
1st in Beginner Men 30-39.

Kris Nosack grabs some points for
the team with his 6th-place finish in
Beginner Men 40-49.

Riding hard against the Women 35-plus
field, Jolene Nosack delivers a 5th-place
finish for the team.

Dan Hutchings drops off the flank of
Snowtop to the guard station, as he rides
to 7th-place in Beginner Men 19-29.

Eric Taylor drops into a switchback
on the way to another 2nd-place finish
in Beginner Men 16-18.

In his 2nd outing for the UMB team,
Todd Neumarker captures 5th place in
the huge Sport Men 30-39 division.

Mike Engberson continues his string
of strong performances with a 3rd-place
finish in Sport Men 30-39.
At Deer Valley, the UMB race team edged Revolution for the win. We widened the gap on Mad Dog in earned points, and our trailwork points should give us a good grip on 2nd place. We continue to peck away slowly at Revolution's grip on 1st place. Thanks to Jay Griffin for the race photos (finish-line and podium photos by Kris Nosack). 

Sally Hutchings sprints across a meadow as she
completes the loop for 6th place in Women 35-plus.
