Josh Tostado and Jari Kirkland claimed solo wins at the final round of Granny Gear's National Points Series (NPS), the 24 hours of Moab in Utah. Both survived cold and extremely windy conditions as some of their top competitors succumbed to illness and the conditions.

Tostado set a blazing pace and logged 17 laps for the second fastest race since 2001. He was set to do battle with 24 hour National Champion Chris Eatough, but Eatough he pulled out after eight laps. Eatough, coming off illness, reportedly suffered hypothermia in the 30 mph cold winds that gusted up to 50 or 60 mph at times across the desert terrain. Had he stayed in the race, it might have been a tough battle as Tostado's pace was faster than Eatough's from previous years.

Tinker Juarez also rode his fastest-ever 24 hours of Moab and clocked 16 laps for a second place finish. Behind him was South African cross country pro Roan Exelby, also with 16 laps, in third. Superbike (motorcycle) world champion Ben Bostrom finished fourth with Leighton Poidevin in fifth.

In the women's race, Jari Kirkland was left to defend her title after favorite Pua Sawicki did not start the event. Pua Sawicki had been training in Moab for six weeks prior to the event and although her family flew out to watch the race, she came down with a respiratory illness and could not start the race. Kirkland won with 13 laps, comfortably ahead of Kris Cannon with 11 laps and Kerry White, also with 11 laps. Cat Morrison and Liz Baumgardt-Kays rounded out the top five placings.

Bart Gillespie logged the fastest men's lap in 1:01:36 while Kelli Emmett had the fastest women's lap in 1:12:53.

Baumgardt-Kays and Rob Lichtenwalner took home the overal NPS titles for the solo women's and men's categories.
