Ottawa Cross

Ottawa Cross is the web site of me, Vicki Thomas – member of the 2010 Canadian Cyclo-Cross Team.

For the past two years, my goal was to represent Canada at the World Cyclo-Cross Championships. Well, this year I achieved my goal. I raced in the World Cyclo-Cross Championships on Jan. 31, 2010 in Tabor, Czech Republic. It was an amazing experience. A race like none other and truly my top racing moment ever.

The 2009 – 2010 cyclo-cross season was a dream season for me. Everything really clicked on and off the bike. I had an amazing support crew and super generous sponsors who really helped my cyclo-cross dreams possible.

For the upcoming 2010 – 2011 cyclo-cross season, one of my goals is to race in the World Cyclo-Cross Championships in St. Wendel, Germany. On this web site I’ll keep you updated with my training, learning, and racing experiences.

In past seasons, I spent most weekends at road races and criteriums. For this year, I’ve decided to change things a bit – I’ll still be out at the local training criteriums and racing at local events. But for the most part I’ll be out riding and training on my road, mountain, and ‘cross bikes. I’ll also be participating in the Heel ‘N’ Wheel-A-Thon – a fundraiser for the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation.
