Sunday, June 01, 2008. Saturday May 31st the 11th edition of the Montreal Women’s Cycling World Cup. In the North American women’s cycling scene the Montreal World Cup is a pretty big deal, it’s the highest calibre race on the continent, the only World Cup held in North America. And this year it is the final selection day for Canada, and I believe some of the other countries as well, to determine who will go to Beijing this August. I later learned that the use of this horn is customary here to remind peo...

Saturday, July 15, 2006. Early season racing in cali. California: umbrellas, sun screen and snow tires required. However, as the elevation decreased the flakes turned to rain beating down on the rich red soil of Redding. I always welcome this part of the drive as with the first smells eucalyptus I know I’m truly in California! Proof that the weather dictates that arm warmers are in order – good thing we have such stylin’ apparel! Heading out on my pre-race ride. The start line was the usual pushing match...

Saturday, July 14, 2007. CDN Road Nationals: a surprise podium. The peleton cruising along early into the 127km day (that's me in the foreground in the orange and blue, white helmet).

mo diesel: A brief reflection of Thanks
http://modiesel.blogspot.com/2009/12/in-effort-to-meet-my-once-per-year-post.html
Friday, December 25, 2009. A brief reflection of Thanks. In an effort to meet my once per year post as the year 2009 comes to a close, I'll share a brief on one of my many bike racing adventures. A reflection on the continental championships, the PanAms.

We knew only a few of the riders- a coup...
