Congratulations to Team Fort Street Cycle in their efforts at the TOC last weekend. Gillian, Cam, and Gabor, swam biked and ran away from the competition, finishing the sprint Triathlon in 57:10 and taking the mixed team event. Carla came back from a week of holiday to post a very respectable time of 1:07:59 placing her 3rd in the Female 20-29 category. This year’s event has raised over $16,000 for the Women’s Sexual Assault Centre. Way to go athletes and volunteers.

TSN at FSC

Mira Laurence from A Channel interviewed Canadian Olympic Triathlete Simon Whitfield today at Fort Street Cycle. The interview was for TSN. If you look closely you can see one of the special addition Olympic paint jobs on the Soloist Carbon frame in the background. The frames had been shipped to FSC so that Canadian Triathlon Team Mechanic Gabor Herner can build them before he and the athletes head off to Beijing early next month. The frame behind Simon will be ridden by Canadian Triathlete Colin Jenkins.
