What a weekend! From frigid temperatures, rain, snow squalls and wind gusting to 70 K out of the north, the weather was anything but enjoyable. Bird's Hill Provincial Park was the site of the Pan Am Games Road Race last summer and home to wandering flocks of wild turkeys. Even they were wondering why anyone would want to be out in their territory. Despite the conditions, we had a small brave group participate in an 11K Time Trial on Friday evening, a criterium on Saturday morning and a Tri-Province Road Race on Sunday. The results are as follows:
| ITT - 11 km | | Place | Name | Club | Category | 11K TT | | 1 | Murray Carter | Seacor Jana | 1Sr | 16:43.30 | | 2 | Neil Grover | Rocky Mountain | 1Sr | 16:51.00 | | 3 | Gordon Dalling | Roadwise | 1Sr | 17:05.20 | | 4 | Ian Case | Olympia | 1Jr | 17:07.10 | | 5 | David Dyson | | 4Sr | 17:28.30 | | 6 | Camilo Mondaca | Roadwise | 1Sr | 17:41.30 | | 7 | Greg Penner | Roadwise | 1Sr | 17:47.10 | | 8 | Ken Orr | Parkland Pacers | 4Sr | 18:05.10 | | 9 | Cabrel Boucher | Olympia | 3Jr | 18:18.20 | | 10 | Rainer Jabs | Roadwise | 1Sr | 18:26.30 | | 11 | David Gerrard | | 4Sr | 18:39.30 | | 12 | Leith McLeod | Olympia | 1Sr | 18:39.50 | | 13 | Michael Fuentespina | Roadwise | 1Sr | 19:01.00 | | 14 | Roger Reid | Alter Ego | 4Sr | 19:25.10 | | 15 | Graham Staniforth | Seacor Jana | 3Jr | 19:29.40 | | 16 | Ed Blanchette | Roadwise | 1Jr | 19:47.50 | | 17 | Chris Staniforth | Seacor Jana | 4J | 20:33.40 | | 18 | Chris Archer | FOG | 4Sr | 20:53.10 | | 19 | Brent Bottomley | | 4Sr | 21:16.00 | | 20 | Linda Harrison | Tribilistic | 4Sr | 21:25.40 | | 21 | Rae-Anne Hardie | A&L | 1Jr | 22:03.40 | | 22 | Kylie Case | Olympia | 5J | 22:24.30 | | 23 | Tim Buchan | | 4J | 24:23.30 | | 24 | Werner Peters | | 4Sr | 24:43.10 | | Criterium | | Senior 1/2 | | | | | | 1 | Gordon Dalling | Roadwise | 1Sr | 56:58.70 | | 2 | Neil Grover | Rocky Mountain | 1Sr | 57:01.10 | | 3 | Greg Penner | Roadwise | 1Sr | 57:03.20 | | 4 | Leith McLeod | Olympia | 1Jr | 57:39.40 | | 5 | Murray Carter | Seacor Jana | 1Jr | 57:40.80 | | 6 | Rainer Jabs | Roadwise | 1Sr | 57:40.80 | | 7 | Camilo Mondaca | Roadwise | 1Sr | 59:03.60 | | 8 | Ian Case | Olympia | 1Jr | 2 laps down | | 9 | Ed Blanchette | Roadwise | 1Jr | 2 laps down | | 10 | Rae-Anne Hardie | A&L | 1Jr | 3 laps down | | Cat. 3/4/5 | | | | | | 1 | Cabrel Boucher | Olympia | 3Jr | 41:52.20 | | 2 | Howard Ryant | FOG | 4Sr | 42:19.20 | | 3 | Chris Staniforth | Seacor Jana | 4J | 42:26.30 | | 4 | David Dyson | | 4Sr | 42:26.80 | | 5 | Chris Archer | FOG | 4Sr | 42:33.20 | | 6 | Ken Orr | Parkland Pacers | 4Sr | 45:00.00 | | 7 | Kylie Case | Olympia | 5J | 2 laps down | | Tim Buchan | | 4J | DNF | | Dave Gerrard | | 4Sr | DNF | | Road Race | | 1 | Rae-Anne Hardie | A&L | 1Jr F | 2:20:22.0 / 66 K | | 1 | Neil Grover | Rocky Mountain | 1Sr | 2:38:36.1 / 99 K | | 2 | Murray Carter | Seacor Jana | 1Jr | 2:38:36.2 / 99 K | | 3 | Gordon Dalling | Roadwise | 1Sr | 2:38:36.3 / 99 K | | 4 | Brian Szklarczuk | Olympia | 2Sr | 2:38:37.5 / 99 K | | 5 | Rainer Jabs | Roadwise | 1Sr | 2:38:40.8 / 99 K | | 6 | Leith McLeod | Olympia | 1Jr | 2:38:49.5 / 99 K | | 7 | Brett Zagozewski | Olympia | 2Sr | 2:41:03.8 / 99 K | | 8 | Ian Case | Olympia | 1Jr | 2:42:05.4 / 99 K | | 9 | Ed Blanchette | Roadwise | 1Jr | 2:53:06.9 / 99 K | | 10 | Michael Fuentespina | Roadwise | 1Sr | 2:53:06.9 / 99 K | | Camilo Mondaca | Roadwise | 1Sr | DNF / 99 K | | Greg Penner | Roadwise | 1Sr | DNF / 99 K | | Greg Edwards | FOG | 2Sr | DNF / 99 K | | Colin Grover | Olympia | 2Sr | DNF / 99 K | | Tim Friesen | | 2Sr | DNF / 99 K | | 1 | Linda Harrison | Tribilistic | 4Sr F | 1:17:46.7 / 44 K | | 2 | Kylie Case | Olympia | 5J F | 1:37:47.6 / 44 K | | 1 | Ken Orr | Parkland Pacers | 4Sr | 1:45:08.4 / 66 K | | 2 | Cabrel Boucher | Olympia | 3Jr | 1:52:04.0 / 66 K | | 3 | Cory Fielding | Olympia | 4Sr | 1:53:15.9 / 66 K | | 4 | Shane Lehmann | | 4Sr | 1:53:16.4 / 66 K | | 5 | David Gerrard | | 4Sr | 1:53:17.8 / 66 K | | 6 | Chris Staniforth | Seacor Jana | 4J | 1:53:25.0 / 66 K | | 7 | Howard Ryant | FOG | 4Sr | 1:53:25.0 / 66 K | | 8 | Chris Archer | FOG | 4Sr | 1:53:25.0 / 66 K | | 9 | David Dyson | | 4Sr | 1:53:25.1 / 66 K | | 10 | Roger Reid | Alter Ego | 4Sr | 1:53:25.5 / 66 K | | | Tim Buchan | | 4J | DNF / | | Rick Yaschyshyn | Olympia | 4Sr | DNF / | | Dave Parker | Woodcock | 4Sr | DNF / | | Robert Collins | WCC | 5Sr | DNF / 11 K | | Sheldon McLeod | Olympia | 5Sr | DNF / 44 K | | Phil Carter | Seacor Jana | 5Sr | DNF / 33 K | | Stage Race Final GC | | Category 1/2 | | | | | | Men 1 | Neil Grover | Rocky Mountain | | 3:52:28.2 | | 2 | Gordon Dalling | Roadwise | | 3:52:40.2 | | 3 | Murray Carter | Seacor Jana | | 3:53:00.3 | | 4 | Rainer Jabs | Roadwise | | 3:54:47.9 | | 5 | Leith McLeod | Olympia | | 3:55:08.4 | | Women 1 | Rae-Anne Hardie | A&L | | 3:40:55.7 | | Category 3/4/5 | | | | | | Men 1 | Ken Orr | Parkland Pacers | | 2:48:13.5 | | 2 | Cabrel Boucher | Olympia | | 2:52:14.4 | | 3 | Dave Dyson | | | 2:53:20.2 | | 4 | Chris Staniforth | Seacor Jana | | 2:56:24.7 | | 5 | Chris Archer | FOG | | 2:56:51.3 | | Women 1 | Kylie Case | Olympia | | 2:44:33.4 |
Bessette Report From l'Aude
Limoux, France (DIAPO) - La cycliste Lyne Bessette n'a pas été en mesure de répéter son exploit de l'an dernier au Tour de l'Aude, mais elle est plus que satisfaite de sa performance. La victoire d'étape remportée aujourd'hui par sa coéquipière chez Saturn Clara Hugues, suivie de près par sa partenaire Petra Rossner, n'était pas pour nuire à la satisfaction de l'athlète de Knowlton-Lac-Brome.
" Je suis très contente de mon Tour ", a d'abord déclaré Bessette, la fatigue à peine décelable dans sa voix. " L'an dernier, j'étais une petite nouvelle et les autres cyclistes ne se doutaient pas de ce que j'étais pour faire. Cette année, j'étais visée : les autres cyclistes avaient l'ordre de ne pas me laisser filer. Ma dixième place est d'autant plus gratifiante en sachant cela. "
Sans surprise, c'est l'Allemande Hanka Kupfernagel qui a remporté le Tour en 26h43:55. Bessette est dixième, à 14:33 minutes de la gagnante.
Bessette revient au pays prendre quelques jours de repos au pays. " Je m'ennuie de mon chum et de mon chien ! " nous a-t-elle dévoilé, un sourire évident aux lèvres !
