The 2006 edition of the Alberta Masters Provincial Road Race Championships were held at Crossfield Alberta on September 10th. The race was hosted for the fifth year by the Calgary CrankMasters Cycling Club.
The sweet young things, ages 30 and older, were out in force to compete for the hardware and prizes at stake this year. The race was held for the first time on a new course located approximately 7 kilometres NE of Crossfield (approximately 60 kilometres north of Calgary) on terrain that is fondly known locally as "rolling ranch lands". Weather conditions were as good as it gets at this time of year for the area with clear skies, winds blowing from the WNW at 10-30 kph and the ambient temperature ranging from 18-22 Deg C over the length of the race.
Only the Fort St. John Blizzard Cycling Club was able to break the dominance of the Edmonton and Calgary clubs in medal winning categories with two medals. The Juventus Cycling Club from Edmonton led the parade to the podium with 4 medals.
