First stage of Abitibi is today, lots of strong teams here, team presentation was yesterday.
86Km into town followed 25km on a finishing circuit in town, finish goes up a hill then flattens for about 30m. Think Caleb Pike with out the downhill into it, something Phil Gill would win on.

Thanks to everyone who supported me in any way

I missed this post when it originally went up. I suspect many of you did, too, as no responses were posted. I have to say I am proud to be part of a club that has been fortunate enough to have the dedication shown by Eric, Lister and Peter in positioning Adam (and all of our juniors) to make the most of their opportunities. Adam's talent is obvious to us all but it might never have brought him to this point without the kind of support he's had through the past two years from family and coaches.

Adam, you are a hard worker and a fine young man and you deserve all of the success you have and will achieve. I look forward to seeing your progress at this level. Red and White suits you. Now we just have to do something about that haircut!

Remember us when we ask you to sign one of your team's jerseys when you turn pro!

What you've achieved in what seems to be a short period of time is truly impressive.
