While at the OR show the Wingnut Booth Crew hit up the Tour of Utah stage 5 circuit race in downtown SLC. This passed just a few blocks away from the convention center where the show was help, but surprisingly the attendance was pretty low. We, Daniel, Ari aka Ana, Adam Lisonbee of EpicRiding blog fame and myself, caught 5-6 laps and of course the sprint finish. I had Mike Creed picked for the win after watching him sit on for the last 3 laps, but when the final selection happened it was Chris Blawin of the GA based Toyota-United team with the win. Also in the race for Toyota-Untied was former Floridian Stefano Barbari. Stefano used to kick our butts in the Florida State MTB series back in the day. It’s good to see him making use of his talents.

Bobke (aka Bob Roll, former Tour rider turned Tour de France announcer for those not in the know) was on hand to call the action in the final lap.

Best of luck to Adam at the E100 this weekend!
