MIVA BOXWOOD TUESDAY CRITERIUM

Not much to report on this one. Mark Wieler took the first prime but totally emptied his energy bucket doing so and was promptly dropped. For most of the race, the packed stayed more or less together. Early breaks by Sean Lunny and Shepherd Stewart came to naught. But a solo effort by Ray Wagner, who stayed away for 8 laps, taking the second prime in the process, almost worked. However, by the bell for the third prime, the pack was together again and Ian Smith edged Paul Thompson to take the flag. The fourth prime was only 2 laps later so Ian kept up the effort and took that one as well. Immediately after this last intermediate sprint, Smith and Mike Sevcov drifted off the front but were brought back within a lap. With just 2 laps to go, OBB's Sean Lunny made a last ditch attempt to go it alone and for a moment, it looked as if he might stay away from the chasing bunchWith one lap to go, Lunny was still about 8 seconds clear but at the line, Ian Smith had exploded from the pack and beat Lunny by just 3 seconds with Paul Thompson winning the bunch sprint a further 2 seconds back.

JANNA GILLICK WAVES THE MIVA FLAG

Last weekend there were three events in Victoria: the Russ Hays time trial on Dallas Rd. on the Friday, the Provincial Road Championships on the Saturday, and the Bastion Square criterium on Sunday. Janna Gillick rode all three events and had some remarkable results as she is still a catogery 3 and working on accumulating points to get her to second category. In Friday's time trial, Janna finished second,  only 8  seconds out of first place. But her best ride was in the provincial road race. She is good at 'reading' race development and was able to bridge to the race winning break. Eventually she finished sixth, not bad for a first year cat. 3 rider!

In the Bastion Square criterium, Janna was competing against a number of other riders who were much fresher than she, having opted out of the provincial championships. Her tiredness showed and eventually she was left out the back of the pack and rode on alone, albeit strongly. She was eventually pulled when she was lapped by the bunch.

Some weekend Janna, and a portent of things to come.
