The Junior Women’s category was small but strong featuring only four riders. Karol-Ann Kanuel (d’Amos Inc.) took the champion’s Jersey, blazing a time of 31 minutes 22 seconds. Quite possibly saving some leg power for the next day’s road race, cruising into second place was Espoirs de Laval’s Joelle Numainville at 34 minutes 38. Rounding out the podium was Janie Fortin (Equipe Proco) at 36 minutes 19 seconds.

In the Elite Men’s competition it was anyone’s guess who of the 24 starters would eventually win the jersey; all the heavy hitters were present, and in the end it was only seconds that separated the top three. It was Alexandre Cloutier (Volkswagen/Trek) who took the event in 27 minutes flat, but fast on his heels were pro racer and former Canadian Champion Dominique Perras (Kodak /Sierra Nevada) in 27 minutes 10 seconds, and fellow namesake Dominique Rollin (Gypco Télé-Announces) at 27 minutes 38 for third. In fourth was Martin Gilbert of Volkswagen/Trek at 28 minutes 33.
