Solid Weekend for Opus-OGC Riders at Quebec Cup Mountain Bike Opener in Terrebonne!

The Opus mountain bike team had a strong and successful showing this past weekend at the Quebec Cup season opener in Terrebonne.

Elite women's Opus rider Andréanne Pichette led the race for three out of four laps aboard her Opus Fhast, and battled cold and muddy conditions to challenge Rébecca Beaumont for victory. The Opus rider eventually finished with a very solid 2nd place podium finish in the Women's Elite category.

Difficult conditions continued in the Junior Women's race where Frédérique Larose Gingras battled to a very solid and hard fought 5th place position on her Opus Fhast.

Opus' Master's Expert 30-39 rider Alex Frappier dominated his category aboard his Opus 29er to lead the race from start to finish and convincingly win the Master's Expert 30-39 category. The 29 inch wheels have certainly helped Alex through the thick and sticky mud on the trails!


The team is looking forward to travelling to Mont Tremblant, Quebec for the Canada Cup/ Quebec Cup events May 20-22. Stop by and cheer them on!
