The MIVA Store is back OPEN! For those of you that didn't get your order in, or are realizing that you need more gear (pro tip: you always need more gear)...
It will close on July 31st. If we hit the minimum 10 on any item we can send the order in early as well, that's the beauty of using ChampSys. What other types of gear are you interested in, let us know! I got myself the MIVA hoodie and LOVE it. It'll get plenty of use once the heat wave and drought is over with.

As there were only eleven signed on it was decided to precede theregular criterium with a sprint series and heats were made up reflecting the range of ability and experience. The first heat saw Brodie Hay (Dr. Walker) winning from Wade Lucksay and son Evan, who showed he already has good bike -handling skills. Heat two saw Nick Kupiak (Broad Street Cycles) matched against newbie Angelina Landry (MIVA) and visitor John Stuart (W. Of Quebec Wheelers). Who was fresh from the Tour of Rimouski. At the top of the circuit, John crashed and was unable to do a re-ride. Then one of the other competitors, who had previously raised concerns about the safety of the course, complained again and so the sprints were curtailed and a shorte3ned criterium was run. James and Mark Grant (LUMA) immediately took off at a blistering pace, splitting the field apart and by the end of the race, had lapped the rest of the racers, some two or three times. Thanks to Steve Grant for administering first aid and to Sean De Pol for cones pick-up.
Hope to see many of you out for our group ride tonight. Again it is a 20-24km/h no drop ride leaving from the NIC at 6pm. We will ride for about 25-30k and you can add on if you want.
