Team Transcend Magazine / Orange riders double podium at Quebec Provincial Championships!
Dry weather and warm temperatures greeted racers in Chelsea, Quebec for the Quebec Provincial Championships this weekend. Racing in the dry for the first time since May, Junior Expert riders James Jeannet and Emmanuel Daoust took full advantage of their first World Cup experience last month as both stepped onto the podium and earned some hardware.
Jeannet was 2 seconds off of first place with a time of 2:24 and Daoust was 3 seconds behind his teammate for the bronze medal.
Both riders looked fast in practice all week, and Jeannet managed a second place despite a crash in a steep technical section of the course, but managed to stay focused and make up some of the time lost. Racing in their first world cups at Mont Ste Anne and Bromont last month helped both riders focus and stay more relaxed this week.
Team Transcend Magazine / Orange would like to thank their sponsors: Transcend Magazine, Orange MTB, Fox Racing Shox, e.thirteen components, Crank Brothers, Thomson Components, Troy Lee Designs.
