Making the '15 Plan Happen Together
2014 was the best season ever!
Ranking 3rd Canadian in the International UCI standings, representing Canada at the World Championships, 3 American stage race victories, 13 podium finishes, and sucessfully defending my 6th and 7th Champion of Québec titles was possible thanks to some special people who chose to join me in making it happen.
The plan : make 2015 even better. The program is set - and I know it can happen... I just can't quite do it all on my own.
It would mean a lot to have you on board...thank you sfor believing in this, and for being a part of my (OUR!) 2015. I even have a few gifts to offer in return ...
This is the breakdown:
