Ellsay at Junior TT Nationals
TB/ES team member Nigel Ellsay has just returned from the 2011 National Junior Road Championships in Burlington, Ontario. Ellsay had his best ever placing in the 22km TT event where he place 2nd to friend Alex Cataford of Team Ontario. Ellsay stopped the clock in a time of 29:08 just 22s behind Cataford and 35s ahead of 3rd place. Ellsay would like to thank Trail Bicycles for having his bike in perfect working order for the championships and would also like to thank teammates for helping him in preparation for the event.

Hornby Island Super D and Overall XC
This past weekend I raced the Hornby Island Super D, but unfortunately not the cross country due to a injured knee and cold. I got second overall in the Vancouver Island Cup Intermediate Men XC, which is pretty good considering that the points from the best six out of nine races are added up, and I was only able to make it to four. The Super D went really well as it was my first race of that kind. I placed third by less than four seconds in Intermediate Men and learned a lot! The course consisted of classic Hornby smoothness with a stretch of grass field at the end making for a fast enjoyable run.
