Bici Bucerias Hill Climb - Tour de Bowness 2016

We were honoured to be a part of the 2016 Tour de Bowness this year. While we were originally to have sponsored the KOM and QOM competition for the hill climb at the Canada Olympic Park, the drastic weather caused the event to be cancelled shortly after the CAT 5 competitors finished.

“CAT5 3 up hill climb trying to beat the rain and get the best time!”

Well, after packing up and getting in the car, it seemed like pizza and beer was in order. So off we went to Ripe Tomato in Marda Loop to pick up a few pies to go and have a beer while waiting and watching the rain.

Tour de Bowness 2016 - CRIT - Sunday Aug 1

Bici Bucerias KOM Moves to the CRIT!

All was not lost. As I woke up at 6:00 am Sunday morning, the sun was shining and it was looking to be a perfect day for a bike race. Since we the KOM competition was canceled the day before, we decided to move our prizes to the CRIT. The winner of the CAT 1/2/3 women and the CAT 1/2 men won a week at the amazing maraVilla in Bucerias, a weekly bike rental, gran Fondo #GFRN2016 entry, and the KOM jersey and shorts sponsored by Bici Bucerias Puerto Vallarta. A big congrats to Meghan Lemiski and Amiel Flett-Brown for taking the big wins.

In addition, all the other category winners received a Gran Fondo Jersey & entry, $250 credit toward a stay at maraVilla as well as a discounted bike rental with Bici Bucerias. Congratulations to all of our winners! Here are the results of the CRIT
