SpiderTech Becomes First Canadian Team to Ride WorldTour Event

Team SpiderTech powered by C10 made Canadian sports history on Saturday, by becoming the first ever Canadian-based cycling team to start a UCI World Tour race on European soil, the Tour de Suisse.

The landmark accomplishment is the beginning of a bright professional future by the team co-owned by cycling legend Steve Bauer and Josée Larocque, who started the project more than five years ago.

In the opening race, a 7.3 kilometre prologue, Brian Vandborg was the fastest “Spider”, posting the 90th fastest time, 52 seconds behind winner and race leader Peter Sagan (Liquigas-Cannondale). With eight more stages to go in the 2012 Tour de Suisse, many more results are expected from the young team.

Tomorrow, the 160-man peloton will ride the longest stage of the nine-day race, 218 kilometres between Verbania and Verbier. With Team Liquigas-Cannondale’s Peter Sagan in the lead after winning the prologue, many teams in contention for the general classification are expected to be very active and shake things up on what should be a very difficult stage.
