Dionne Makes Olympic List

Charles Dionne is the latest rider to meet the Schedule A criteria for nomination to the Canadian Olympic team. The COC (Canadian Olympic Committee) puts out an updated list on the 15th of each month, and Dionne this month joins the list of cyclists qualified. He is the fourth man to qualify for the road race, joining Michael Barry, Mark Walters and Eric Wohlberg. Canada currently qualifies for 3 spots in the men's road race (Canada is ranked in the 26-30 group by nations), however, we could lose some spots to riders ranked in the top 300 individual rankings, whose country ranking is 31st or lower (the UCI criteria for Athens, can be found here). Canada is currently ranked 28th, and looks unlikely to move up or down. Currently, Croatia, Hungary and Ireland each have a rider who would "bump", so Venezuela, Lithuania and Canada would each lose one spot. The latest men's UCI rankings (Nation and Individual), as of March 14, 2004 are below:
