Ryan Trebon (Kona YourKey.com) won the final USGP Series race in Portland, Oregon, in dominating style and captured the USGP Championship in the process. Yesterday's winner and series leader going into the day, Tim Johnson (Cannondale/Leer/Cyclocrossworld.com), finished second at 1'10", while Todd Wells (GT) finished in third.

Following yesterday's victory, Johnson held a slim four point lead over Trebon in the overall standings. After five contests it was virtually a winner take all scenario on the series' final day. All hype and speculation ended after the gun as Trebon took the hole shot and never looked back. The rider, who at one point held a lead of over a minute, completely dominated the field.

Johnson was very strong but was unable to close on Trebon after his explosive start. The Cannondale rider, who battled Barry Wicks (Kona YourKey.com) and Wells for second place for a good part of the race, was able to slowly pull away to finish second.

For Trebon, the title is his second consecutive USGP Championship and third of his career (2004, 2006 and 2007). The SRAM Most Aggressive Rider in the Men's field was Andy Jacques Maynes (Giant Berry Farms). Maynes, just few months removed from a horrific crash that made his return to competitive cycling questionable, began the race in the fourth row and finished in 10th place.
