Erik Miller berhak menyandang gelar juara King of the Hummers 2012. Peserta asal Cumberland, Maryland, Amerika Serikat itu berhasil menempuh rute brutal sejauh 150 mil di Johnson Valley. Ia menjadi yang terbaik di antara 160 peserta.

"Kami konsisten menjalankan strategi kami," kata Erik. "Kami ingin lolos kualifikasi, berada di 10 besar. Dan saya pikir itu merupakan faktor penting memenangkan gelar juara."

Jalur yang dibuat tahun ini memang luar biasa berat. Tambah lagi, Dave Cole, promotor event, memberikan kesempatan bagi 61 peserta yang tidak lolos kualifikasi plus 100 peserta untuk ikut serta.

Para peserta harus berhadapan dengan tanjakan dan turunan tajam, baik jalanan berpasir maupun berbatu. Erik berhasil mencatat waktu 6 jam 03 menit dan 51 detik. ia mengungguli dua pesaing terdekatnya Rick Mooneyham (6:16:48 detik) dan Shannon Campbell (6:33:40 detik). Hanya tiga besar ini yang mampu mencatat waktu 6 jam. Sebanyak 46 peserta
lain yang berhasil masuk finis mencatat waktu antara 7 sampai 13 jam. Sisanya? Gagal. (RF-mobiljip/RAW)
