Soma Grand Prix Criterium Series - Calgary Alberta
(courtesy Marc)
August 22, 2000
Race Format - Regular - A and B group Combined.
This was the fastest race we have had with an average lap time of 1 minute and 40 seconds: typically a good lap for the past races. It was great to see the lead pack with most of the riders, which made the race intense. Primes did nothing to split the field and the ten primes were well divided through the riders. Jere Hu won the 5th prime by inching past Kirk Schmiedge. Kirk may have been distracted by the challenge because 3 minutes later, he lost traction in the second corner from unevenness in the pavement. Wade Wallace challenged Dave Jetz for the last prime though Dave had reserve to look back to see how close Wade was.

Thanks to Parc Downsview Park and Tony Genco, Veltec Canada, Chris and Pierre, Tina, Peter, Mike, Russell and Geoff Gadd (note, you Edmontonians) for marshalling and course control and to Harry De Boer for lap scoring. Thanks also to all the riders who supported the event. This event was a great success. It proved to be very different to the Airport Park crits. - the hill and the technical nature made it more of a road man's circuit.Let's hope it's the first of many.
Next week, it's back to Mississauga and a 6.45pm start.
