Canadian Cyclist Fantasy Tour Winners

We are now ready to announce the winners of the first Canadian Cyclist Fantasy Tour. Just like in the Tour, the early lead switched a number of times, but in the end, one player rode away from the field. The key to winning turned out to be having ONCE on your squad - second place would have won if they hadn't picked US Postal instead. By the way, Armstrong appeared on every team picked.

We hope you enjoyed participating in the Canadian Cyclist Fantasy Tour, and watch out for our next one. We would like to thank the following companies who provided the weekly and overall prizes for the Fantasy Tour:

Coach Chris (coaching packages) - www.coachchris.com
Rudy Project (eyewear) - www.rudyprojectusa.com
Gita North (Gator Bars and Giordana clothing) - available through the CC Store
Rocky Mountain Bicycles (Reynolds Ouzo fork) - www.bikes.com

Week 2 Winner: David Gazsi - wins Rudy Project eyewear

Week 3 Winner: David Gazsi - wins Coach Chris Silver Coaching Package

Overall

1st Mark Foster (432 points) - wins Reynolds Ouzo carbon fork
2nd David Gazsi (416 points) - Giordana CP4 shorts and Gatorade bars
3rd Rob Naish (399 points) - Rudy Project eyewear
4th David De Grandpré (397 points) - Coach Chris Silver Coaching Package

Note: 4th and 5th tied on points, but 4th signed up one day before 5th.
