On May 29, 2022, athletes from NCCH and Team Hamilton competed in the Quinte Criterium road race held at Centennial Park in the City of Quinte West. The day featured some fierce racing with some unbelievable photo finishes. The Elite 4 Men category saw some of the toughest racing of the day with three athletes including NCCH’s Joe F. and Antoine B. leading a breakaway group of 4 athletes, a crash in the last lap saw 3 athletes race for the honors in a sprint to the finish. Joe F. took second place in a photo finish with Antoine B. taking third a mere 7 seconds behind. Alexander M. finished in 19th. Alex M. was in a group which featured 18 athletes crossing the line in a massive photo finish, 4th place to 21st place was separated by 1 SECOND. Talk about a close race. In the Elite 3 Mens category, Thomas P. aka Coach Thomas, took the gold in another photo finish and Zeke M. placed 21st. Maria M. raced to a 6th place finish in the Elite 3 Women’s category and Vanessa M. placed 12th in the Elite 1 and 2 Women’s category, this was another tight race that saw 1st place and 12th place separated by 31 seconds. In probably the craziest photo finish of the day, Chris ERNST racing with our sponsor team Xspeed United, finished 12th, this race saw a one second difference between first and 22nd. A kudos goes out to the race officials that were able to sort out the results of that finish. These were some amazing results and we can’t wait to see what the future brings for our athletes. A big Thank you to Cyril as the Lead for this project, and Coach Thomas
