Kabush and Hall win Low Gap – Grasshopper Adventure Series 2020
Stetina takes second at men's race



























Geoff Kabush claimed the opening race of the Grasshopper gravel race in Ukiah, California, upsetting former WorldTour pro-turned gravel racer Peter Stetina and Sandy Floren.
Kabush explained on Twitter that he closed a three-minute gap on the last descent to reel in the two leaders, then out-paced the pair to take the win.
Stetina and fellow former road pro Laurens ten Dam converted to gravel racing after hanging up their skinny tyres.
In the women's race, mountain bike star Kate Courtney was a no-show but Boels Dolmans' Katie Hall claimed top honours nearly ten minutes quicker than her closest rival, Lauren Cantwell with Moriah Wilson in third.
Hall separated herself from Cantwell, Wilson, Tetrick and the rest of the field on the opening climb and pushed on to take victory.
What’s my favourite way to win a bike race? Close 3min on the last descent and surprise the leaders 30sec before the finish. #WhatWouldTomacDo #ProperHopper #GravelWorldTour pic.twitter.com/VFTXuECaH5January 26, 2020
The next race in Grasshopper 2020 Series comes on February 29, with the SuperSweetwater.
