EDWARD JONES POINTS SERIES -- SUMMIT HILL CLIMB Summit Hill Climb -- June 18th, 2009 -- 2 miles Tyson "holy smokes he's already here" Flaharaty stormed up the hill in 8:49 leaving no room for discussion about who was king of this particular mountain last night. Jim Button and Serguy Streltsov rounded out the expert class with times of 10:16 and 11:08:44 respectively. Womens class winner Heather Best was pipped by Serguy at the line and recieved a time of 11:08:73. The womens class was rounded out by Melissa Lewis finishing in 11:47 and Barb Creighton posting a 15:24. In the mens Sport/Master class Tom Dale(11:52) bested Rob Todd(12:44) and Larry Hodges(12:51) rolled in a close 3rd. Jay "I can't believe you did that on a mountain bike" Baxter rolled in 4th with a respectable time of 13:15. Your friendly race director Erik "I hate hills" Brunner sacrificed what was probably his best and only chance at a podium in a hill climb event to host. ( Note to self: Schedule another hill climb the week of the Kluane lake ride next year.) Larry Hodges,Tyson Flaharaty and Heather Best all supplied much appreciated volunteer race event staff. Thanks to all who showed up for making this a safe and enjoyable race. Next time eat more post race cookies, it might give me an eighth of a chance next year NAME TIME ---------------------- Expert Tyson Flaharaty 8:49 Jim Button 10:16 Sergey Streltsov 11:08 Sport Tom Dale 11:53 Rob Todd 12:44 Larry Hodges 12:51 Jay Baxter 13:15 Women Heather Best 11:08 Melissa Lewis 11:47 Barb Creighton 15:24
