2010 KING OF THE MOUNTAINS CENTURY CHALLENGE
FINAL STANDINGS
Congratulations to all Official Finishers of this fifth edition of the Planet Ultra King of the Mountains Century Challenge. 217 dedicated and strong riders completed all three of the toughest Southern California Centuries: Mulholland Challenge, Breathless Agony and Heartbreak Hundred - 3 Days, 330 Miles, 33,375 feet of climbing! Completing any one of these rides is a huge accomplishment in and of itself. Riding all three... well, all we can say is, "We Salute You!!!"
All finishers received the exclusive Planet Ultra 2010 King of the Mountains finisher socks, and earned the right to wear either the coveted King of the Mountains Official Finisher jersey or Queen of the Mountains Official Finisher jersey.

Top finishers in each category (which had five or more competitors) each received a special trophy, courtesy of Planet Ultra. Thanks to our product sponsors, the first place finishers each received a VDO MC1.0+ Wireless Altimeter/Cyclometer; the second place finishers received a $50 gift certificate from Hammer Nutrition, and the third place finishers received a Detours bag.

**(comment added May 2011) Malcolm Hill should have been awarded the overall, as his 50+ finish time was also the overall fastest time. This was an oversight on our part. Planet Ultra does not follow USA Cycling or USCF race rules. We're not really racing; we're just acknowledging the efforts and dedication of our riders. So, for all future KOMs, the person who has the fastest time, regardless of their age is the overall winner. The age rankings are meant to provide to our older riders an opportunity to win prizes. But when a 50+ or 60+ or whatever age person is faster than the younger men, the fastest one is the winner.
These record setting finishes are incredibly impressive under any circumstances... and moreso considering that the Mulholland Challenge was even longer and harder than in all prior years!
Special kudos to our most senior finisher, Bill Glos, who's 71 years young (the oldest finisher ever is still Skip Nevell, who was 72 when he completed the KOM); and to our youngest finisher, Trevor Thorpe, who's 23.
A huge round of applause to the only tandem team to complete the 2010 King of the Mountains Century Challenge - Yvonne & Alan Darnell. Only three other tandem teams have ever completed the KOM!
Heartfelt thanks to our friends at Bristol Farms who provided delicious and nutrition food and desserts at all three KOM events!

Please note that we purposefully ordered
each rider's "Place" without skipping numbers if there was a tie. Most riders
care more about where their time fell in the rankings of other times, as opposed
to what "Place" they took based on how actual races would place finishers. So please
don't email us to let us know we made a mistake.
