We caught up with Team Leader and Men’s Track Endurance coach, Ian Melvin, for his take on the championships. “Today has epitomized our performances here in Aigle. Our kids have had to work hard for all of their rewards, and they showed a lot of fight and determination. I’m thrilled to see us come home with four medals but beyond that, we’ve set personal bests and national records, almost across the board. We couldn’t ask for anymore from these riders; I’m incredibly proud of them all.
“Hopefully this group has shown the rest of the world that we can compete with anybody out there; they’ve created a springboard for themselves and also for Canada’s junior program. Still we have to keep working hard through the winter to ensure that the gaps we still have are addressed,” he concluded.
