May 31, 2004 – With two weeks remaining before the Ontario / Michigan
Championships, several Ontario riders are getting ready for the events. Second year track racer Amy Meher from London was competitive all day finishing fifth in the points race. Meher also put in a personal best time in the flying 200m with a time of 13.6 seconds. Two new Road racers from the Waterloo Flying Doggs took the Track Racing 101,course in the morning ( which is open to all riders). Kurt Schrieter & Neil Dingman then were entered in the racing in the afternoon. Although being a little nervous performed very well in the “B” Division, Schrieter won the Scratch race with a great finishing sprint. Dingman Lapped the field in the Points Race for the win (who said road racers can’t win on the track). Both riders then joined the “A” Division to learn the art of Madison racing (my favorite), We hope to see them compete on Friday nights beginning June 25th.

In the “A” Division, racing was fast & furious, Taylor Martin from Ancaster
moved up in both the 50 lap Scratch race & 80 lap Points race to finish in
the top 10 in both races. Waterloo rider Don Andrews was the top Canadian
in the afternoons racing finishing with two top five results in the Points &
Scratch races. In the two lap Charriot race, Rob Good out-dueled Dave
Koesel for the win, with Martin a close third.

Next track action takes place with an Ontario Camp at the Velodrome in
Bloomer Park on Friday afternoon June 4th, 3pm-7pm, followed by Nas-track
Madison practice 7-9pm. On Saturday June 5th, Track 101 (new riders) at
10am, 2:15 -2:45pm Standing Start Training & Instruction. Racing at 3pm.
The Camp is open to all riders of all age groups. What a great way to get
track time before the Junior Worlds Qualifier & Ontario Track
Championships the weekend of June 18 – June 20th.
