Giving out the hardware

Last night the Cornwall Cycle Club gave out it's 2012 Cycling Trophies at the Jet Set Pub.  A crowd of over 20 members enjoyed an evening of good stories, new friendships, cold drinks and fried foods.  President Marc Dubuc did a magnificent job as Master of Ceremonies.  Here is a list of the deserving recipients:



Trophy winners 2012

Tour de Keith - none - 100km TT in Moira - I was the only one that showed up for the competition along with Cam that wanted to ride.  It was a gorgeous day so we decided to do as a ride together -

Sportif Cyclist of the Year - Marc Dubuc - 2012 - this trophy is awarded to the member that has accumulated the most points throughout the season from races and TT -

Tourist of the Year - Leigh Carson- 2012 - Leigh has been through a lot health-wise this year and through it all he has remained an excellent cyclist - a true inspiration to us all

Member of the Year - Maren Butkovich  - 2012 - we decided to award this one to Maren for being Maren!  She is spirited, fun and participates at most events, even the CAMEBA races.  She is a tough little cyclist that is not scared of working hard.  In a way she is part of the glue that holds the club together.

Most Improved Cyclist - Darrell Blakely - 2012  - I first met Darrell on a bike ride around Lunenburg.  He was riding by himself and we chatted at a stop sign.  I encouraged him to start riding with us and he reluctantly agreed.  He's improved exponentially over the next few months to the point of giving us veterans a run for every event be it road race or Time Trial.  Great to have you with us Darrell.

Female Cyclist of the Year - Penny Tallman - 2012 - Penny as well started out as a beginner this season but she quickly improved to the point of staying up with the boys and even being able to pull us around at times.  She is a determined cyclist and fitness freak!  Great job Penny!

Most  Promising Young Cyclist - none
 
Pictures from the night are to follow.
