Krista Ruby rocks the track for LaBici in 2010

Here is Krista doing a Madison workout at the Forest City Velodrome. This girl travels to London weekly to practice and make sure she is on the top of her game. That is a lot of travelling and a lot of asking friends and family in London for a nights stay. That is what it takes to be the best and it won't take her long with this kind of commitment to training, her time in traffic, extra money spent on gas and effort it takes just to get to the track. Proud to have her back racing for us in 2010!

Kyle Rupay - Track update



I got word that Mr Kyle Rupay had quite the race on Saturday night down in London.
Kyle raced in the open age group and did well. He fought hard and never gave an inch.
He took a third, another third and missed the final 145 lap feature by one place in his semi final.(7th)
He was the youngest to get that far.

Here is the quote from the press release.

"In the semi final things began to heat up as some Juniors were sprinkled in by their performance in the heats. Young racer Kyle Rupay from Peterborough, soon became a crowd favourite. Kyle dangled off the back of the first Semi and continued to show guts and determination as lap after lap he got dropped and caught back on when the pace slowed. Although Kyle didn’t make it to the Final, he was always on the radar of the fans who appreciated his effort."

Next race is the Ont. Madison Championships on Dec. 12th.

Great job big man!!
