Big Weekend

Just a short note to everyone involved in the MS Bike Tour and Canada Cup to thank you for your participation in both events and team and staff members who volunteered for the MS tour. The MS tour is well on its way to it's 1.6 million dollar goal. Our road Marshalls on the tour were awsome and the feed back for the help you provided was excellent. Great Job guys.
The racers in the Canada Cup all showed well and Alberta MTB Racing has the results up on their web Site. Any one with some good pictures please forward them to me at home stew.sharon@shaw.ca.
Next Canada Cup is in Canmore next weekend in conjunction with the Banff Bike Fest.
