Coconut Cup series #7 – Quiet Waters Park – Deerfield Bch, Fl

Amazing weather weekend in South Florida again, the area got a much needed mild spell before the real summer heat comes and the racers certainly appreciated it at this fun and rapidly evolving course. What I mean by evolving is that since we only come once a year it has been noticeable how much the course has improved each time. The Quiet Waters trail crew has done a great job building and maintaining the system and with each vist it gets more features and more flow.

The 6.7 mile course was considerably longer than last year’s version and included some punchy new climbs and decents which adds to the already tricky course. Nick Mackie made an appearance at the final round a put a check mark in the win column of the men’s overall elite classes and also posted the fastest single lap of the day with a 23:01 averaging 17.0 mph.  Jennifer Moos claimed her second win of the series in the women’s expert class.  

The overall series awards were held after the race activities and the top three in each class were honored on the podium, there were also special awards for the following… Most Improved rider – Mario Riveron / Most Improved Junior – Rodgrio Ferrer-Assad / Most Improved female – Valentina Ferrer-Assad. Congratulations to all of the champions and racers and also special thanks to the series sponsors and trail building clubs that make the sport so special!
