Tour de l'Abitibi - Quebec

The Abitibi international junior stage race began this evening with a prologue criterium (does not count for the stage race). It was a 7 lap, 15 kilometre elimination event.

Canadians were active in the race, with Cam Evans in a break that was caught at the halfway point and Ryan Roth in a last lap solo 'suicide' attack.

Thanks to National Development Coach Jacques Landry for this report.
