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.
