Many of the season-long contests are decided - some by tremendous margins - and a few are still too close to call pending this coming weekend's results at Folsom - the final races in the competition.
Cycles Gladiator Wine will be awarding the Top Sprinter Awards (a custom jacket and a case of their premium wine) on the podium at the Folsom Circuit Race on Sunday.
So if you're going to win one of these special prizes, BE THERE AT FOLSOM ON SUNDAY!! ('Cause if I have anything to say about it, we ain't shippin'!)
