Poitras Crowned BC TT Champion
As the local cycling scene came to a close this weekend with the BC Time Trial Championships in Squamish, BC, both the women's and men's Symmetrics Cycling squads shone, sweeping every title up for grabs.

Racing under cloudy, cool conditions, over 30 women tackled the 38.5km out-and-back time trial course. This is a relatively flat, fast course, with the exception of the final 2km, which is a deceivingly tough false flat to the finish line. Riding my fixed gear track bike, I posted the fastest time of the day of the BC women and became the newly crowned BC Time Trial Champion.

The BC Time Trial Championships were also the final event of the seven race BC Cup Series running from April-Aug. My victory in the Time Trial garnered me enough points to move into 2nd place overall, with my team-mate Marni Hambleton taking home top honours for the second consecutive season.
