August 30, 2018 (Milton, ON) – For the first time the National Cycling Institute Milton hosted a summer track event and attendance was phenomenal with just under 70 youth and adult racers taking to the rail. Racers came from as far away as North Bay and Buffalo New York to kick of the Ontario Track season.

The Canadian National team was out in force with World Champion Maggie Coles-Lister and the Cyclery Racing’s Devaney Collier leading the charge. On the men’s side two time Winter Olympian and current National Team Pursuiter Vincent de Haitre battled with veteran Ed Veal for supremacy with hoard of young guns hot on their heals.

In the youth races it was a battle between Milton Revolution CC’s Simon Hunter and Mayer Mijhawan from Midweek who split the night at two wins a piece.

Executive Director Chris Reid commented, “Thanks to Peloton Contracting we were able to do something a little different with this event. We didn’t know what the turn out would be like but there had seemed to be interest in hosting a summer event and they allowed us to take the chance, a chance that was rewarded by a fantastic turn out. Having the youth and adults racing on the same night meant that we were able to give some great racing opportunities for the range of young riders that came out- it was cool to see young riders competitive in every category.”

The NCIM would like to give a huge thank you to both Peloton Contracting and the Town of Milton for making this event possible!!
