Schedule

  • June 5 - "B" and "A" race
  • June 19 - "B" and "A" race
  • Future dates and locations TBD

Announcements:

  • Friday, June 1: W ran out of light by the end of the last race on May 22. So we’re going to move up the start times for the B crit to 6:00 pm and A crit to 7:00 pm. 
  • Sunday, May 20: Registration form is ready-to-go and is available here. A clarification for ONT citizen permits, they are OK to use for Quebec training races.
  • Thursday, May 17: First training event for next Tuesday, May 22 is lining up. Some notes:
    • Registration: Still working on the online form, so it's coming ASAP. Keep an eye here for its release.
    • Fees: $20per/ $40 for all three. Ideal for us if you pay for all three, it's a pain to collect cash each time.
    • Volunteers: we'll need only 2-3 to help out on this course, please let us know if you're available. 
    • B-crit: 6:30pm start, 45min event, 15min break between events. NO A riders allowed under any circumstances NO exceptions. We may ask a couple of A riders to assist in the B crit with our permission. If you are a qualified A rider that would like to volunteer assisting in the B crit to please email Vince Caceres thecyclery@rogers.com first for approval. DO NOT expect approval at the crit.
    • A-crit: 7:30pm start, 60min event. 10min rule will apply like last year; you're dropped in that time you're out. See Rules for more info about getting back in.
    • ONT citizen permits: we're still waiting for clarification from FQSC as to whether ONT citizen permits are accepted. We've set a Saturday deadline for NO unless if we don't hear back from the organization. UCI licenses and FQSC citizen permits are all ok.
