Captain Ron; aka "Old Mossy" standing guard.
Thanks to Giant for providing draw prizes as well after the race, it was a very nice surprise. (oh...waterbottles not bikes were the prizes :-)
Yes my wheel is furthest ahead at the start!

the main pack about mid way through.
Probably the flashiest finishline in the business!
Getting a bit more strung out now.
The Womens Pack, 2nd race of the night.
Gratuitis butt shots.
Early on these girls ripped the legs off the pack. 2nd back is Heidi King, National masters road champ.
Michelle, in her first proper crit. Good job to her to suffer the way your supposed to suffer in a crit.
Gratuitious Zipp 404 wheel shot.
Pablo and Steph.

Funny how this rise in the road can be so abusive. strong headwinds didn't help even a bit. 4th rider is Sasha Leblanc who had a bad crash towards the end of the race. Thankfully she's ok and her helmet got trashed (as its supposed to).

Caroline, now in her second race in 4 days...and her first races in her life. She's going to be one to watch out for next year girls (and some guys too!!!)
corner 3, this was a fast and tight one onto Champlain st. Very good course, highly technical.

considering the traffic and the road we closed...there were minimal complaints. We also had a nice group of spectators which always makes it more enjoyable.
