Feb. 28, 2008 - Let’s take you back to December 26th 2007 where BMXers from all over arrived in Columbus, Ohio to compete in one special championship, the annual “Presidents Cup.”
It is a state vs. state showdown where riders compete for individual wins, but their finish place in the “Mains” count towards the state’s ranking. With only one champion in the end, the state of Michigan won this year’s Presidents Cup with Florida following in 2nd place. The Florida team has won the cup more than any other state combined and has some of the fastest riders in the World.
On this Florida team was an 11 year old girl named Sarah Gross who is from Cape Coral, Florida. She won 1st place in everything she raced in and took home a beautiful gold cup. (Shown in the picture above) Sarah has only been racing for one year and is currently #1 in the state on both her 20 inch and 24 inch bicycles. How about that for a girl…a “pretty tough” girl!
