After a catastrophic chip system failure, we have been able to recover the results from today’s race – thanks Patrick Burnham. And, thanks to Oak Bay Bikes, and the Wheelers for putting on today’s race – always a fan and racer favourite.
Race results are available here. Please note – if any information needs to be corrected, please let me (Trevor Orme) know. See here for season standings. Powered by IRC!
For those who are disinclined to participate and rub elbows in the always exciting June 2nd Windsor Park Crit – hosted by Oak Bay Bikes and the Victoria Wheelers – there are a few other racing opportunities with our friends up-island.
Sidney Velo is hosting a 40km Individual and Team Time Trials in the Cowichan Valley. Sign-on at 11:00AM, at the Duncan Meadows Golf Club, and racing starts at noon. The cost is $20, with under-19 racing for free. See http://sidneyvelo.ca/time-trial-details-2/ for details.
Or, if you are a little further up-island in Courtney/Comox, the Comox Valley Cycling Club is hosting the Lazo Road Race on June 2nd on a 10k rolling course. Reg will be cheap ($10-20) and weather is guaranteed to be sunny.
This coming Wednesday May 22nd is GVVA + Victoria Cycling League (VCL) race night. For VCL riders who did not get a chance to take a Learn-to-Ride session and don’t want to miss out on the action / points, please show up by 5pm at Westshore Velodrome on Wednesday and we’ll get you up to speed with a “Track 101” session so you too can partake in the races that evening! We’ll sort bikes out and go through some basics between 5-530pm and then get on the track at 530pm as the venue is booked until then. Hope to see you out there this Wednesday!
Thanks so much to Cycle Therapy, and all the volunteers that made Sunday’s race possible, and to Cherry Point Vineyards for providing such an amazing backdrop for the painfest. There was a tremendous turnout – 84 racers across all categories – and I saw smiles on everyone, at some point during the day 😉

Hey everyone, pack up the bike(s) and the family, and head up to Cherry Point Vineyards on Sunday. The format is great, a ton of fun, and the course is scenic, challenging, and a lot of fun. Details available here – thanks to Cycle Therapy in Duncan for race organization/hosting.
Here are some details on the Youth Road Race Series component

This event was also slated to be an island youth road and track series event. But with registration up and down for the races so far, organizer David Beggs and I have agreed to merge them as 5 ability categories, A,b,c, d, e, with d and e for youth riders who want something easier than A, b or c. And it’s moved to 1:00. So bring some kids and have an early lunch! 🙂.
Ps. I’d expect E to be 7-10 yrs, D to be 10-13. Strongest youth welcome in a,b, c.
Race Results have been update on the IRC page, with season standings updated. Here are the times for the various hill-climb warriors – thanks everyone for showing up!!
