Highlands Nordic, Duntroon, ON

Brian, Bevin and Larry, take home some bling after a tough day on the trails.

Snow in the middle of May? Yes… that’s what happened this past Sunday. Both racers and gear paid a heavy price in what must be described as the toughest O’Cup MTB Race ever. Unseasonably cold conditions and snow covered trails quickly turned the race course into a muddy quagmire, making for a huge challenge to both man and machine. Despite these horrific conditions the LapDogs MTB Squad pulled off a very impressive collection of results.

Parsa Morini, 13th Place, U17 Cadet
Bevin Reith, 1st Place, Master Sport Men (40-44)
Brian Moosie, 3rd Place, Master Sport Men (40-44)
Richard Lee, 12th Place, Master Sport Men (40-44)
Tom Beck 4th Place, Master Sport Men (50-54)
Derrick Cho, 11th Place, Master Sport Men (50-54)
Larry Woo, 2nd Place, Single Speed Men
Mark Brusso, 1st Place, Master Expert Men (30-39)
Dan Bandurka, DNF, Master Expert Men (30-39)

Not even snow in May can dampen the spirit of the LapDogs.
