Under a blasting sun, Phillippe-Antoine Alexandre proves himself during the the Fromagerie Boivin stage.
Yesterday morning the first stage of le Tour de l'Avenir took place under blasting heat and optimal conditions. The stage had the name of Phillippe-Antoine Alexandre written all over it. The young racer from the maillot bleu-record team won the yellow jersey by finishing first and he also claimed the jersey for the best sprinter.
After an explosive start, the pack split in three groups after the first big climb. The entire race was an open 'war' between Lawson Craddock from the Texas team and Phillippe-Antoine Alexandre. However, a mechanical forced Craddock off the pace in the final kms.
On the women's side, it was Cory Rivera from Major Motion Cycling that climbed on the top step of the podium with an impressive performance. She rode in the boy's leader's pack the whole race. Also with good performances were Shanie Bergeron and Élizabeth Albert.
Post race, numerous coaches and athletes came to the organisation headquarters to thank us for the challenging event we are putting on. For them le Tour de l'Avenir his been, without a doubt, the highlight of their racing season.
