Although the bikes have been washed off and put away weeks ago (if not longer), the Colorado 'cross scene wrapped up the season in style at its awards party on Saturday.
There were plenty of pink jerseys atop the podium at the evening event in Denver. As was the case in 2013, Evol Racing won both men's and women's overall team competitions in the Colorado Cross Cup. With 126 racer starts, the team was in for the long haul in 2014 to claim the two titles again.
In the individual Cross Cup categories, the Evol team did one better over last season, when Ken won the men's open title. In 2015, the team claimed both the men's and women's open individual titles. Spencer won the overall men's title after placing second in 2012 and 2013. Melissa earned her first Cross Cup as well. She was fourth in the overall standings last year.
"It's a really tough feat to win the overall," Spencer said. "There were times in the past couple years when I thought I had it sewed up, only to have someone come on strong in the final month of racing. It's great to take the series title and to share the podium with my teammate, Ken." Ken was second overall in the series.
