January 21, 2007 – Day one of the Can-Am-Que Challenge #3 at the Forest City Velodrome is in the record books. All three groups showed their strength and speed in the 14 events run. The feature sprint tournament went to Ontario’s Joseph Veloce. The feature 100-lap scratch race went to Kirk Albers of U.S.A. with Quebec’s Martin Roseboom finishing second. The Ontario ladies, led by Joanna Wiersma, took the pursuit and scratch race with Quebec second. The excitement drawn from the crowd was evident by a number of primes offered throughout the night.

Racing continues Sunday at 1pm with Junior and Ladies Sprint tournaments, Kierin racing, Miss and Out, Scratch races and a Madison.
