July 27, 2014 (Glasgow, Scotland) – Team Canada’s Remi Pelletier-Roy won Scratch Race bronze on the final day of the track competitions on the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome, Canada’s first cycling medal at the XX Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

“I’m pretty happy and for the team it’s a great achievement. We came here with big goals for the track program and getting a medal was something we were hoping for. This was one of the last races and one of the last chances to do it so I’m pretty happy to put that on the boards for the team and the program, and for myself for sure,” Pelletier-Roy told Pedal.

Pelletier-Roy, Zach Bell and Aidan Caves all qualified to easily advance to the final. “Thanks to some smart riding by Bell, Pelletier-Roy got into perfect position for the sprint in the last five laps and he completely emptied the tank in the final sprint to claim the final podium spot,” said Kris Westwood, HP Manager with Cycling Canada and the team leader in Glasgow.

In the women’s points race, Jasmin Glaesser, Laura Brown and Steph Roorda raced well to put Glaesser in position to contend for the podium. She was in third at one point but started her final sprint from too far back and finished sixth.

In the Men’s Keirin Joseph Veloce, Vincent De Haître and Hugo Barrette did not finish well enough in the first round to advance to the semi-final, but Barrette won his Repechage heat and advanced to the semis.

“In the semi-final he was perfectly positioned to advance to the final but a New Zealand rider took him up the track on the final lap and he finished fifth,” continued Westwood. “Although the New Zealander was relegated, it was not enough for Barrette to get the top-three placing he needed to go to the medal final… so he took out his frustrations by winning the 7-12 final by several bike lengths.”
