March 14/11 10:32 am - Canadian Team Finishes Successful Para Track Worlds

The 2011 UCI Para-Cycling Track World Championships came to an end on Sunday in Montichiari, Italy, and Canada fared well with honest performances by the Canadian men's tandems throughout the event, two medals on the second day of competition, as well as a stellar performance in the final day, which led to a Canadian record being broken by the tandem of Geneviève Ouellet ad Emilie Roy in the women's pursuit.

The last day of competition in Montichiari, which attracted a record number of participants, featured the 500M time trials for the women's C category, the pursuit race for the women's tandems, as well as the sprint events for the men's tandems.

In the women's pursuit race for the tandems, Canada's Geneviève Ouellet of Amos, QC and Emilie Roy of Québec City, broke the Canadian record with a time of 3:50.016, good enough for a ninth place, and Development Coach Sebastien Travers was thrilled with the athletes' performance.

"For their first pursuit together, this is a great overall performance, especially coming home with some precious UCI points, which will help them and Canada for upcoming major events," said Travers, development coach for the Canadian Para-Cycling Team.

Canada's top tandem in the men's sprint race was the Calgary duo of William Stanley and Doug Baron, who ended their first World Championships appearance with a time of 11.134 seconds for tenth position. In the same race, the duo of Neil Fachie and Craig Maclean of Great Britain broke the World Record to capture the win.

"This is an honest performance by Stanley and Baron, in their first World Championships. They were both able to see where they stand against the rest of the world," added Travers.

Also in the tandem sprints, the duo of Daniel Chalifour of St-Jérôme, QC and pilot Alexandre Cloutier of St-Antoine-de-Tilly, QC finished in 12th place, followed by the duo of Brian Cowie of Burnaby, BC and his new pilot Luc Dionne of Sorel, QC in 18th.

Silver medallist in the pursuit on Saturday, Marie-Claude Molnar of Ste-Adèle, QC finished fifth in the women's C1 500m Time Trial race, breaking a second personal best result at these World Championships.
