With the weather prediction of scattered heavy rain showers, we felt very lucky to have a dry time trial, especially those of us who arrived with clean bikes! As a bonus, the air pressure was low, which made for easy going except when heading into the south winds between the 6 and 7 km part of the course. Overall, six riders improved upon their last week's time, while 6 were slower, and 7 were doing their first WTT 15km of 2012. Lindsay Los was the most improved at 12.05% and as well was the fastest of the night at 24:35 (36.61km/h). Lili Caron (32:14 or 27.921km/h), with new shoes, pedals and saddle, was the second most improved at 11.25%, while Nicole LaViolette, who is looking better every week, upped her cube speed by 8.23%. The second and third fastest women of the night were doing their first WTT 15km of the season. Jacinthe Vadeboncoeur was second with a new database personal best of 24:45, while third place Natalie Cormier finished in 24:49. Four riders improved upon their previous 15km database best - Jasmine Chase (26:03) posted an 11.35% improvement in her previous best, while Jacinthe Vadeboncoeur (24:45) improved by 7.88%. Thirteen year old Kyle Caie, out with his dad's front Zipp wheel, upped his cube speed by 2.13% to break into the twenty-fives with 25:56. Finally, Gwyn Norman had a subtle improvement of 0.19% with her 26:19.

(Lest complaints about me just lazily sucking in the results surface, I wish to make it perfectly clear that I would gladly do the data entry, getting the results up within a few of hours of the event, as history shows that I did for the WTT series for the decade beginning in 1998, and for the OTT series from 1999-2002 and again in 2006. The OBC Board however, not only won't let me volunteer here, but strangely enough they actually expelled me from the OBC for donating this time trial web site to you !)
Thanks to our Helpers: M Rueban Balasubramania, Veronique Boily, Dave Cooper, Nicolas Dery, Morley Dore, Barb Gauthier, Lindsay Los, Don Wilson.
