Snowshoe, WV (6/29/2009) - FRE/KTM ATV GNCC rider Adam McGill showed up at the Snowshoe event to claim the title and the $10,000 purse just as he had done the previous year. Unfortunately, luck would not fall his way and a broken foot peg kept him from capturing the win.

McGill started the 20 mile, two-loop race out front. He led the first lap around. Unfortunately McGill hit a rock at the end of the first lap resulting in a broken foot peg and a trip to the pits to repair it. To make matters worse it took nearly and hour to repair his KTM race machine before he returned to the course. He eventually reentered the race but was too far back. He was credited with 19th overall.

In the XC-2 class, FRE/KTM rider Josh Kirkland, pulled a great start and led an impressive race to again land on the podium in the 2nd place position behind XC-2 class winner Brian Wolf. “This was a challenging race,” commented Kirkland. “There were so many different obstacles to tackle – it was tough but fun.”

Angel Atwell took command of the Women’s class adding another win to her belt over Traci Cecco. Atwell led the majority of the race to finish 1st. Atwell only needs one more win in the next four races to clinch the championship.

Next Event: Round 10 – New Berlin, NY – September 12-13, 2009
