Hello everyone, we had a pretty great week for riding, although the wind was not favourable for Tyndall the latter half! Great to see several of you out at the North Saanich race today, and I know some of you were racing the Island Cup MTB at Hartland as well!
We're continuing to grow, over 40 people rode segments this week, which is very cool to see. Keep it up, hopefully the segments this week don't scare people off - it'll be a fun challenge! 😁
HOUSEKEEPING
Just a few notes:
Hello John Lee! I have you as joining the Strava Group, but not signing up on the website, need you to do both in order to get rankings and win prizes!
Otherwise I think everything is in order this week! I'm considering combining the Female field (A, B & C), since we've only had a lone A, and this week one C has joined, so this might make more sense..if we don't see these numbers increase in this coming week, I'll combine all and rejig the results for next week.
If there are any errors, omissions, issues, concerns, or anything else, feel free to hit reply!

THIS WEEK IN RIDES
The A's
Claire remains uncontested! Damian locked in the fastest overall times, AND got a KOM, and good duels between Reagan and Harley this week!
The B's
So great seeing so many B's!
On the Female side, K :) never strayed far from the 'top step', with another 1st and QOM, but Laura got in a faster time on the B segment, and Justine had some great times mixing in a 2nd & 3rd!
Over with the gentlemen, we've welcomed a few more riders, but John MacDonald was the Early Bird, Adam rode the secret time of 2:12 on the A segment (and no one rode a 3:15 on the B), and sadly Amir claimed the Local Legend title, losing 5pts.
Travis claimed the glory on the A segment, two seconds faster than Jon Clark, and on the B segment Travis also got 1st, but I managed to ride the same time, so we're tied there. Jon claimed second again this segment, and Adam captured 3rd on both.
The C's
Welcome Wendy, our first Female C rider! Good job getting out there! In the Open field we're welcoming Kit St. John, but glory goes to Marc and Matt who tied on the A segment, but Dan had the edge on the B segment, with Mikael collecting 2nd both efforts as well!
PRIZES!
This week is Fort St Cycles week! They've got some fantastic prizes, including a Skingrowsback handlebar bag which is all the kids are raging about these days.
They've got 5 prizes (or bundles, like 2x water bottles), so I'm going to add in some Algi Food bars, and every winner also gets 2x those (as a minimum). I've drawn 6 names, 2x A, 2x B and 2x C, and the draw winners this week are:
Damian
Claire
