Shane Bourne ruled the roost in the mountain bike category, Ozia Macullay and Jamal Cappel followed in that order. Denise Jeffrey was the top female with Deance Welch, second, while the oldest cyclist to compete was the internationally renowned, two-time Olympian and current World Record holder in the Masters Class, James Joseph.
