Dear Fellow Cyclists and Supporters,

On behalf of the Canadian Cycling Association, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to beautiful Mont St-Anne, Quebec, home of the 2005 Tim Hortons Mountain Bike National Championships. 

The Mountain Bike Championships are one of the premier events in the Canadian cycling scene.  This event carries a lot of weight in selection for the World Championships team and promises to be very exciting given the demanding terrain at Mont St-Anne.

 I would like to take this opportunity to extend congratulations and special thanks to the race organizer, Gestev, to the many volunteers who help make the races happen, and to the operators of Mont St-Anne for their support.

Good luck to everyone in your races!

Sincerely,

Bill Kinash

President, Canadian Cycling Association
