May 13, 2007 (Calgary, Alberta) – The two-day biciFEST road event wrapped up in Strathmore, Alberta today with an 18 km Time Trial, which followed Saturday evening’s GP bici circuit race at the Race City Speedway in Calgary. In the Category 1/2 men’s Time Trial, perennial Alberta stand-out Bruce Copeland won over La-Z-Boy’s Rob Britton by a narrow margin of four seconds.

The Women’s ITT saw a surprise winner with newcomer Annett Kamenz prevailing. Saturday’s Circuit race for Category 1/2 men was won by an Alberta La-Z-Boy, Ryan Hopping, while the Women’s race saw Alison Testroete (Expresscopy.com) narrowly out-sprint Natasha Kuzmak (Synergy).

All of Saturday’s circuit races were characterized by strong head winds and tailwinds and came down to sprint finishes, while the Time Trial was also a windy and somewhat wet affair. The joys of racing in Alberta in the spring.
