CYCLING CANADA’S NEXTGEN MEN’S GROUP GET READY FOR THEIR EUROPEAN SPRING PROJECT
(Ottawa, ON – March 20, 2015) Following the recent announcement of the Cycling Canada NextGen program, the Men’s Track Endurance group will be assembling in Milton on Monday, March 23rd, 2015.
After a season beginning last July at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, the team raced through the UCI Track Cycling World Cup season gaining valuable experience in the build-up to this summer’s Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games. Riders are now heading to Europe for a two-month project that will combine training camps and races in several countries, including three UCI Nations Cup events.
For some of the riders, this project in Europe will begin the preparation for July’s Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games while for others it will provide an opportunity to experience European racing and provide the long-term development pathway towards a professional career.
