Peak Centre Winter Racing Series – Pre Season Stage 3 Results
Stage 3 brought riders back to the classic time trial course that has been a regular part of the series since its inception back in 2004. The 23.5 km course rolls gently through the first half before climbing steadily up to the finish line.
On the men's side it was another close race in Vancouver with the top 2 fighting it out for the win. Ted Russo of Vancouver blew out of the gate and opened a significant lead on the first half of the course. Mike McIvor tried valiantly to close the gap through the second half of the race and launched an all-or-nothing effort on the last descent and climb. In the end it wasn't enough and Ted held his lead took the win at 39:34.3 with a 4 second lead over Mike at 39:38.7. Paul Comeau of Ottawa rounded out the top 3 with a 40:12.7.
On the women's side, Wendy Blagdon of Ottawa took the top spot with a 40:48.3 that was good enough for 6th place overall. Kathy Bradley of Ottawa took second with a 45:41.3 and Dianne Marleau of Ottawa took third place with a 45:58.6.
