Cooper & Colson take national series finals

The XC finals in the national MTB season were run today in glorious sunshine into the tall timer of the Victorian alps. A race course of 22km in length with a total climbing per lap of over 500m. This was the most exacting round on the series but the riders were very positive about the long race format.

Elite men rode 2 full laps and the winner, Dylan Cooper (ACT), raced a time of 2h3m22s, only 33 seconds ahead of Perren Delacour followed by Aiden Lefmann (+3m4s).

Elite Women, riding a village loop and a full lap, was won by Emma Colson (1h38m44s), 3 minutes ahead of the Series leader Niki Fisher and Carole Jackson (+6m).
