Blizzard Bike Club
Fort St. John, BC, October, 15, 2006
The Blizzards practiced their cyclo-cross skills in the snow, Sunday. Robin
Baillie won the event, completing six laps of the 2.8 km North Peace circuit
in a time of 46.47 minutes. Pat Ferris was second with five laps at 48.25 and
Kevin Cooper third at five laps, 49.18. Bob Andrews was fourth, Roger St. Jean,
fifth, Barb Polehoykie, sixth, and Colter Young seventh, all at five laps. Sam
Keats and Adam Currie did four laps.
The snow and the rain made the trail very slippery, clogging up the bikes and
freezing the riders, but everyone made it to the finish. A good crowd of riders,
considering the weather conditions. This was good practice for the National
Cyclo-Cross championships coming up in Nanaimo, November 11, on ‘sunny’
Vancouver Island.
Coming up:
-Last Toony Cross Thursday night at 6 sharp, as daylight is running out.
-Sunday Cyclo-cross at 2 pm North Peace.
