Report

It was another week of perfect Low-Key weather as Low-Key tackled its second of two individual time trials in the 2012 series.

In the women's division, it's been all about Lisa Penzel this year as she continued per perfect record of top placings. She was once again followed by fellow Brown-Zoner Lynn Sestak. Amy Cameron of Sisters was third in this 16-rider-strong women's field, just 10 seconds ahead of Ginger Kroft.

In the men's division, it's been an incredible series this year, as Clark Foy asserted control to move into the overall lead. Low-Key stars Tracy Colwell and Carl Nielson were second and third ahead of last week's time trial winner, Rob Manchester and just behind him, last week's coordinator Rich Brown.

In the tandem division, the strong turnout this year continued, with the Pauls once again blitzing the course to take the top points against mixed tandem teams the Brehmers and the Van Kaenels. The Pauls are the strongest all-male tandem team in Low-Key history.

In the Hybrid-Electric division, Bill Bushnell took the convincing win, although his score was a bit lower than it had been in recent climbs.

Special thanks to our amazing volunteer crew on this very challenging course!
