Special Anniversary Event
Thirty-Four Kilometre Two Person Team Time Trial
Starting & Finishing at Ste-Justine-De-Newton
On Labour Day Monday, September 1, 2008
Following our popular 100 Km Four Person Team Time trial, there will be a special fun event to help celebrate the Club’s Thirty-Sixth Anniversary. Yes, a Thirty-Four Kilometre Two Person Team Trial for all CCB members. The event will be held on Labour Day Monday, September 1st starting at 09.00 hrs at Ste-Justine-De-Newton. Get there well ahead of time!
Your team can comprise two guys, two gals, or a mixed team. There are two special categories - a couple team. So, get your spouse or partner into shape, and go for it; - also a family team, which can comprise a father or mother, teamed with either son or daughter. The team time recorded will be that of the slowest rider, but you are required to finish together. It is a team event!
And now for the prizes: Medals will be awarded in each category – fastest male, fastest female, fastest mixed, fastest couple team, and fastest family team. The medals will be presented at the Club's End of Season Party.
Parking will be available at the Ste-Justine-De-Newton Community Center parking lot on 3ieme Rand west of Montee Noire (in other words, the same parking lot that is available for our 100 km Team Time Trial).
The start and finish will be on Montee Noire, about the same location as the 100 Km TTT start.
Check the route map on the CCB website. In any case, the turns will be marked on the road, and with luck we will have marshals at the important intersections to guide you through the traffic.
Oh yes, of course, we will need volunteers to help – time keepers, maybe bike holders, marshals, and course sweepers (for the day before). So if you are not planning to ride, your help will be greatly appreciated. Please contact your favourite organizer listed below.
So get your team together. Get out there and train. Get your registration in as soon as you like, and certainly before Wednesday, August 27. Remember all riders must be CCB members, except for couple teams, and family teams where only one rider need be a CCB member. If you are a non-member, and wish to ride, all you need to do is pay your membership fee. A start list will be distributed by e-mail the day before the event. There will be no registrations accepted on the day of the event. The organizers will be busy enough.
So, to register, submit your team member names, and category (male, female, mixed, couple, or family) to the organizer via e-mail or phone.
If you cannot find a partner, but would still like to participate, let the organizer know. We might be able to pair you up.

Happy 36th Anniversary!
Pedal note: The two-person team time trial was introduced as 30 Km event to mark the Club’s 30th anniversary in 2002. So, the distance has been increased by 1 Km every year corresponding to the number of completed years of the Club’s existence. Now we have run out of distance on this course, so it will remain a 34 Km event.
