July 16, 2019 (Rouyn-Noranda, QC) – Lukas Carreau (Can) Quebec finished second on the podium for Canada on Stage 1 from Val-d’Or to Rouyn-Noranda, 117.6 km, won by Micheal Garrison of the United States as the 51st annual Tour de l’Abitibi got underway on July 16 in Quebec and runs  July 21.

After a legendary breakaway, the young athlete clocked a time of 2 hours 54 minutes and 47 minutes, followed closely by Lukas Carreau of the Team Quebec, with American Matthew Riccitello in third.

These riders were part of a breakaway of fourteen cyclists who were seven minutes ahead of the pack. The commissioners made a decision that is very rarely seen. The peloton was stopped at the entrance of the circuit to let the leaders finish their race and subsequently the peloton completed three laps.

Following this first stage, Garrison, the leader of the time classification, will wear the brown jersey in tomorrow’s race. He also won the orange jersey (points classification), which will be worn by Carreau. Riccitello was awarded the blue jersey (best young). Emil Schandorff Iwersen was awarded the polka dot jersey.
