The NBL/UCI Elite Series, which ran parallel to the UCI North American Continental Series, came to a close at the NBL Stars N’ Stripes National in South Park and Formula’s Donny Robinson and Fly/Supercross’s Krystal Hime have won their respective Elite Men and Elite Women’s titles. In keeping with the tradition of offering the most lucrative level of Elite racing in the country, the NBL added the program as a ‘series within a series’ to further promote the UCI North American Continental races, paying out more than $13,000 in purses and $10,000 in year-end awards.

The NBL/UCI series included all eight UCI North American Continental races in a total point format. Awards will be presented at the NBL Grand National in Louisville, Kentucky. Congratulations to the Champions and thanks to everyone who participated in the series. The NBL Elite Series comes to an exciting finish, September 3 in Louisville at the 29th Annual NBL Grand Nationals.
