Nic Colangelli enjoyed one last
outing on his 3 Bros./TBT Racing
KTM 250 XC, which has just over
450 hours. That gave him the Pro
250 win (the class admittedly

early leader and class champ
Rachel Stout taking a DNF after
suffering a knee injury, that put
Woolslayer close in final points,
145-140. Let's Ride KTM's Ashlee
Gage finished second—her best
