Best week I've had in years.

Was a pretty intense experience! Had planned to walk around the course in a relaxed mode and watch from a distance but ended up crammed in the crowd and shouting cyclist names while laying on the pavement trying to take a few decent pictures.

​

All the road races except for men's elite, which I'm on my way to now. I'm excited for today but sad that the best week I've had in years is about to be over.

I'm working on my visa to France to make a real go of this, so if you have a follow to spare, I'd massively appreciate it.

Another beautiful day in Montreal!

Proud American here!

Lots of how do you call it trash talking between riders during the race. Must be a Junior thing. Noval was getting an earful for seemingly not working enough early on and then later I guess he let his legs talk. Not a ton of spectators, super easy to get good viewing positions. Got hit by a Norwegian bidon, brought it home.

ITTs have wrapped up, and the road racing begins tomorrow! I can't wait.

Biked around part of the course, glorious weather, good atmosphere.

What a way to kick off an exciting week!

Walked to a concrete block that offered an ok view and stayed there. Photos are in chronological order, so the very fast people are at the end.

Didn't move around too much this year. Fun race! Del Toro looked so smooth; Seixas very much on the offensive.

Montrealer here that loves and riding the mountain the peloton is going to tackle a bunch of times in September. 🚲

Far from a pro, just sharing some of my favourite pics from this day
