Canada Cup #1- Mt. Tremblant

This weekend was the much anticipated return of the infamous Mt Tremblant Canada Cup track. The vibrant village atmosphere always gives this event a special feel, and this year was no different as the weather was spectacular for the long weekend!

The track is long, rough and physically demanding, it has not changed since we've started racing here. It was the first Canada Cup race for our new team members, thus a big learning experience for Jamie T. and Mike O. Jamie was able to overcome pre- race nerves to finish a strong 10th in the U17 field, an exciting result for Jamie who will still be racing U17 next season!

In the elite class, Harold managed to place 28th and Tom 45th. Mike O. finished mid pack despite coming off his bike in the Junior Expert field and Kyle a little ways back after having issues in his race run.

The team splits next weekend, with our elite racers off to New Jersey for their first ever US Open and the remainder of the team racing the 2nd Provincial Rd.
