Alrighty then! Making up for last week cause I was sick and didn’t feel like doing much (I have asked myself on multiple occasions if you can actually melt into a bed… fortunately you can’t!) Last week was kind of a rainy week so Tuesday and Wednesday rights didn’t go (despite us having a leader for Wednesday!) (Wow there are a lot of brackets) (OK I’ll stop), however Thursday saw the usual loads of riders. Saturday was the Canada Day Criterium, which despite no longer being provincials (More on that later)(OK I lied about the brackets) saw great attendance from the club, racers and not, partaking in the festivities! Huge Congratulations to Liann Cameron and Andrew Linklater for gracing the podium, with a 1st and 3rd respectively, and props to all the racers who showed up and represented the club.
Anyways, updates!
