November 23, 2014 (Burnaby, BC) – The 2014 Canadian Junior and U17 Track Cycling Championships took place in Burnaby, and close to 80 young riders met to compete for the ultimate honours, the red and white jerseys awarded to the Canadian Champion.

The event was an excellent opportunity for athletes of all corners of Canada to race head-to-head, some for the first time at a national competition, and evaluate their form and progress against each other.

“The future of Canadian track cycling is very bright. We observed some very exciting moments and strong performances this weekend after three days of very competitive and passionate racing in Burnaby,” said Mathieu Boucher, Cycling Canada’s Director of Performance Development and Technical Delegate of the event. “We saw U17 riders posting times rivalling with junior athletes, showcasing exceptional track cycling skills for their age level. The weekend showed that Canada is heading in the right direction in the long-term development of track cyclists.”

The next major track cycling event will be the second UCI World Cup of the season in London, Great Britain from December 5-7, while the 2014 Canadian Track Championships for the elite, master and para-cycling categories will take place January 3-6, 2015 in Milton, ON, using the brand new Pan-Am velodrome.
