The Daryl Evans Racing JunkYard Dog BC Cup XC race on April 24 was a resounding success! The 86 racers competed in 2 races, with Juniors and Citizen starting at 9, and 19+ up to Elites starting at 11:30.
This year we had The PhysioMoves Juniors Prime! U13, U15 & U17 racers, boys and girls, raced from the start to just before the race village to win the $20 prizes, before they carried on for their first lap. Competition was fierce with a special note to the very strong girls, with Emilly Johnston in U15 category, who was third among the very large contingent of boys! We also had a prime cash award for the heaviest bike and slowest race lap. Big kudo's to Tonini Demitri who in his first race, won both cash prizes on his 40.8 lb DH bike and full face helmet and finished all three of his 7+km laps!
Junior Prime Race Start winners were; U13 - Cam McCallum and Elly Hoskin, U15 - Cody Scott and Emilly Johnston, U17 - Holden Jones and Mila Wittenberg.
The swag given out as door prizes was the largest amount ever! We had 36 individual prizes ranging from 2 Sawbucks gift certificates, an Investors Group White Rock full hydration pack, with Cannondale jerseys and a variety of quality gear from South Surrey Cycles. We gave out an amazing assortment of products like Sugoi BCBR embroidered jerseys & jackets and Lululemon BCBR emboidered sports clothing from the generosity of BC Bike Race!
