“We all agree that we have witnessed amazing racing this weekend. The athletes keep raising the bar, as we’ve seen with the numerous Canadian records being broken but also the fields in general getting bigger and more competitive. We are fortunate to have this facility here in Milton, but more so to have so many great people working on it, from the Town of Milton staff to our dedicated team of volunteers and officials,” said Jessika Grand Bois, Track and Road Program Manager at Cycling Canada.
