Best Wishes To...

Road racers Kim Langton and Piers Davidge, who are getting married today. The mother of the groom tells us she has 18 people staying at her house, including 9 commissaires (so this will be a heavily scrutinized wedding ceremony ...).


Happy Birthday To...

Alberta-based mountain biker Marg Fedyna.
