Although competitive in nature, the SCC welcomes all to try their hand
at road racing. We try to promote a relaxed and friendly atmosphere to
train and race, as traditionally "roadies" can be pretty "uptight!".
Current OCA licensed SCC riders include:
Senior ˝ - Bruce Davison and
Jamie McEwen
Senior 3 - Brendan Duff, Chris Mark
and Adrian Gedye
Junior - Peter Sanowar
Veteran B - Frank Battaion
Formal Track work outs at Delki Dozzi Cycling Track: Every Tuesday
(sprint\strength) and Thursday (long intervals) 6:00 - 8:00 pm (May to
August). Helmets and road bikes mandatory (i.e., no mountain bikes).
For safety reasons, aero bars may remain on bikes but cannot be used
during track training times.
Local Races at Delki Dozzi: call Sandra for details. Frank's End of
Summer Criterium will be held at Delki Dozzi Track on the August 28/29
weekend.
Organized Group Rides: Occur on some Sunday mornings and Wednesday's
for triathletes\racers leaving from south end (call Adrian at Pinnacle
Sports - 523-7400).
Regional Road Races: Contact the Sault, North Bay and Timmins CC's and
they will be posted once made available to the SCC.
Licensed Road Bike Races in Southern Ontario: after your license is
obtained you will be given a schedule from the OCA.
Road Racing Licenses: Racing Licenses must be signed by president (for
previous holders) or coach (new licensed racers) and will only be
signed when SCC membership fees are paid. These applications and
additional fees (license and OCA membership) are forwarded to the OCA.
Three one-day licenses are now permitted for certain road events and
age-categories. These are purchased during race registration.

Safety: The SCC fully endorses the wearing of approved and properly
