Tabor series overall battles decided tonight

The battles for the overall titles at the six-race Mt. Tabor Wednesday night series conclude tonight at the dormant volcano in Southeast Portland.

The Senior Women are locked in a tight race, with six riders within 100 points of each other. Consistent riding by Hammer Velo's Sam Yeo's placed her at the top of the leader board going into the last race. Yeo's 242 point total tops Kaytee Petross (Portland Velo) just two points behind at 240, and Sue Butler (Monavie-Cannondale) with 200.

In the Senior Men's race, Hammer/CMG Racing's Austin Arguello leads Steven Beardsley (Gentle Lovers) by 24 pints and Cyclepath's John Browning, who is leading the Masters Men's series, by 62.
