Update - Tour de l'Abitibi

Today Chris Balestrini is leaving for his next stint with Team Ontario and is heading up to Val Dor, Quebec to race in the Tour de L'Abitibi. It is a highly prestigious and extremely competitive junior stage race, featuring 8 stages in 7 days over the tough terrain. Chris is looking for great results and the possibility of taking home the KOM jersey. Good luck, and we'll try to update with results frequently.

Peterborough ITT

Chris Balestrini finished 2nd at the time trial OCup held in Peterborough, put in a strong race, holding a consistent tempo the entire time averaging over 41km/h. Well done!

Chin Picnic Criterium

Yesterday, Andrew Scollard raced in Toronto at Chin Picnic, it was the next race in the OCup series, and the weather was great for the race. Most of the course was on the Honda Indy course that will be used in a few weeks time, and the tight 1.42km loop with 7 turns made the racing fast, exciting and a little dangerous. The race was scheduled for 50 mins, and in total we did 35kms, and averaged 42.6km/h for the race. The finish was around a slightly bending U corner, and when everyone started the sprint, Andrew was boxed in and had to go around, but it was a little too late, and he ended up 9th. Still an excellent result for the team, and luckily no crashes.

Also, today at nationals, is the time trial, and Chris Balestrini will be looking to put in a good effort ahead of the road race tomorrow, and crit on sunday. Post with results later on.
