The finale DOUBLE POINTS hill climb in the Arrowsmith Bikes Hill Climb Series goes this Thursday at 630pm, up the annual finale location, Doumont. MIVA has hosted 14 time trials, 15 crits, and 4 hill climbs.. 33 races down. 1 to go. Let's do this one up HUGE.
I've compiled every result I can find from 2011 to now, all viewable here. Course Records: Female: Janna Gillick 14:12 (2015) Youth Female: Abigail Hare 19:25 (2013) Male: Nick Kupiak 11:49 (2015) Youth Male: Evan Luksay 16:51 (2015)
The Series Standings last year were flipped upside down with the double points race, read about it here.

Hill Climb #4 in the 5 race Arrowsmith Bikes Series took place at the popular Departure Bay climb. A good showing of 14 riders came out in 33 degree heat. Janna took the female course record here with a blistering 7:54, 21 seconds off last years best. Tamara Zavarise knocked 33 seconds off her time last year as well, and husband Lee took 10 seconds off of his time. It doesn't go unnoticed how dedicated this couple is to make it out to so many events, arranging childcare, alternating, and even volunteering!
Of last year's 26 starters, only 5 were out tonight, as we've seen many of last years regulars missing in action for the hill climbs (cough: Joel L, Paul A, Ken O, Lisa M, Sandy, Carole..etc) and a bit of a changing of the guard. We'd love to see everyone out at next week's finale, there's even a rumour starting tonight that Reagan Lovig may be over from the Sunshine Coast to take part.
Full results from the race here. 2015 climb results here. 2014 (no climb here) 2013 results here. 2012 results here. 2011 resultrs here.
The standings for the Arrowsmith Bikes Series remain unchanged, with Janna holding onto the lead in the female category:
The male category remains unchanged with the 1-2 punch of Nick Kupiak and Eli Buffalo still 1-2 in the standings:
| Place | Racer name | Race results | # of races | Total points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nicholas Kupiak Broad Street Cycles | 4 | 48 | |
| 2 | Elijah Buffalo Gastown Racing | 4 | 40 | |
| 3 | Jim Brown MIVA | 4 | 27 | |
Next Thursday is the FINAL climb in the series, good for DOUBLE POINTS as well. It's at the annual championship location, Doumont. There will be a post race social at the Black Bear Pub afterward, building on last years good times. https://www.webscorer.com/register?raceid=75309&owner=0
If you build it, they will come. Norm's dream of bringing Cross back to Diver Lake in the dead of summer proved this to be true. A huge turnout (SELL OUT) and one of the best courses designed on the island had people raving for next years race, with suggestions of overnighter doubleheaders, other additional locales, and much more. One of the remarks overheard most often was that the course maximized the venue size better than anyone imagined, with the Le Mans style start spreading the group out early. By the stats: Females 20 Female Finishers 20 Males 75 Male Finishers 73 Total Racers 95 Finishers 93 (98%) Top 3 Teams: MIVA (17) / Dodge City Racing (7) / Tripleshot Cycling Club (6)

20 racers came out to take on the longest hill climb of them all, Nanaimo Lakes Road. The 7.2km grind had some fast times! The top 4 males were all identical to last week with Nick Kupiak, Eli Buffalo, Lazarus Difiore, and Ron Cook all holding their own slots again. In the female race Janna Gillick took top spot, followed by Lesley Anderson, Rose Houle, and Tamara Zavarise.
The Course Records also held on for another year, with Joel Deschiffart (14:28) and Janna Gillick (16:40) both set in 2015 but not taken down today.
