Following the status updates for national calendar events earlier this spring, Cycling Canada is pleased to confirm the final dates for the 2021 Canadian Road Championships for Elite, Junior and Para athletes.
Initially scheduled to take place over the same weekend as the Masters Canadian Road Championships on September 3-6, 2021, the event for Elite, Junior and Para athletes will now be scheduled in lieu of the Grands Prix Cyclistes de Québec et de Montréal (GPCQM) on the weekend of September 10-12, 2021 in Beauce, Québec.
The competition programme will be very similar to the 2019 Championships, also hosted in Beauce, with the individual time trial for all categories kicking off the event on Friday. The road races will be spread over the two following days, with titles being awarded for Junior women and Elite men on Saturday, followed by Junior men, Elite women and all para-cycling categories on Sunday. Unfortunately, due to the circumstances surrounding the pandemic and other factors identified by the local organizing committee, the criterium races will not be part of this year’s competition programme.
As the COVID-19 pandemic and associated public health restrictions continue to evolve, please refer to the 2021 Event Status Update webpage for any updates and cancellations as the season progresses. All events will continue to remain subject to local public health guidelines and will only proceed where deemed safe within regional return to sport and event frameworks.
