The Cycling PEI (CPEI) season began this past weekend with the first stage of the 2006 CPEI - Dalvay by the Sea Mountain Bike Citizen Series. The Summerside Rotary Park was the location of the Summerside Muck Raker MtB XC event which had a large number of participants from all 3 Maritime Provinces.
Eight of the 9 categories winners were from PEI including Norm Adams completing the 11 lap Male Expect category in a time of 1 hour and 46 minutes. Other category winners were sport male (8 laps) Bruce MacPherson 1:15; sport female (5 laps) Madeline Hughes-Stretch 1:01; U18 male (5 laps) Kyle Knebone 50 minutes; U13 male (3 laps) NS?s Lucas McCulloch 37 minutes; 55+ male (4 laps) Ted Cross 1:05; and beginner male (5 laps) Cody Croken 1 hour and 15 minutes. An event first had Cycling PEI Executive Director Kelsey McIntosh (plate #911) participating in his first ever race and finished second behind Croken. Beginner female champion was Ruth Sturz finishing her 3 laps in an impressive 42 minutes and 22 seconds.
Organizer Tyler LeLacheur could not have asked for a better day as the run came out from behind the trees as the event official, Luke MacDonald called the riders to the start line. 33 participants in 9 categories took to the line in preparation for the 3.7 km course. Both LeLacheur and MacDonald would like to thank the many volunteers that assisted with hosting this top level event.
This event was also the first event for 11 new Mountain Bike Coaches who completed a clinic the day before. Cycling PEI took in NB?s Andre Ouellette for the MtB course, the first of its kind in recent PEI history.
The next stage in the CPEI - Dalvay by the Sea Mountain Bike Citizen Series is the Tour de Pants on Sunday July 30th at the Brookvale Nordic Park. The next CPEI Citizen event is the Smooth Cycle Road Series stage #3, PEI Bike Fest July 15-16 in Summerside.
