On The Pegs VOL. 4 ISSUE 9 - SEPTEMBER 2020 39 TAIN HIGH 50TH ANNUAL UTE CUP After two-days of competition, 120 miles of high altitude trail and 80 scored sections, no less than five riders stood atop the leaderboard at the end of this year’s Ute Cup trial in LaGarita, Colorado. This year marked the 50th edition of the Ute Cup Trial, and when five riders cleaned the event, there was no other way to break the tie than to go by age, with the oldest rider taking the win and the youngest finishing fifth. Thanks to his 46 years of life experience, Beta USA’s Ray Peters (Above) took top honors at this year’s event, finishing ahead of Dustin Land, Karl Davis Jr., Alex Niederer and Daniel Blanc-Gonnet, in order of finish.
