Ronnie Taylor shows off two awards presented  to  SASP Chaparral Challenge Moutain Bike Race

Chaparral Challenge Mountain Bike Race sponsored by FoSASP in October has been selected Race of the Year
by the participants. The local race is part of the West Texas Championship Series that sanctions events in several
West Texas locations. Riders from all the races voted for their favorites.

The riders also voted FoSASP as Best Sponsor of the Year. “Congratulations,” said Jeff Lynskey, of American
Cycling Association.  “Chaparral Challenge had three or four times more swag than anyone else plus a t-shirt.
Probably why ya'll won Race of the Year. Of course, it didn't hurt to have the best mountain bike race course in
the state.”

Ronnie Taylor, FoSASP Board member, coordinates the race and is responsible for all the ‘swag’ (prizes).
FoSASP furnishes the t-shirts, concessions, ACA fees and volunteers. The 2007 Chaparral Challenge will be
October 22.
