Cameron Jones (Scott-Shimano) and Sofía Gómez Villafañe (Specialized Off-Road) swept up the victories in the 100km (62 mile) long LIttle Sugar MTB, helping set the scene for the finale to the Life Time Grand Prix series at Big Sugar Gravel on October 18.
With the victory Villafañe clinched the overall win ahead of the final round of the six-race series but the men's competition just got tighter as a consequence of the win from Jones, who now sits on 97 points along with Simon Pellaud (Tudor Pro Cycling) making them both just one point behind current series leader and three-time series winner Keegan Swenson (Santa Cruz htSQD). Torbjørn Andre Røed (Trek-Driftless) is also just a further point back with 96.
