NATIONAL TEAM PROGRAM - ROAD

INTRODUCTION

2009 was the first year of the new quadrennial leading up to the London Olympics in 2012. Despite injuries to targeted athletes many performance benchmarks were still met at World Championships. The investments into the women’s program proved worthwhile with Erinne Willock placing 7th in the road race and Tara Whitten placing 8th in the individual time trial.On the men’s side, Svein Tuft could not repeat his podium performance from 2008 and but still finished in 15th place this year.However, all our targeted male athletes had success this year. A highlight coming at the Vuelta a Espana with Ryder Hesjedal winning stage 12.

2010 will build on the success of 2009 with an expanded program and focus on projects in Europe.
