Giant Canada has announced seven riders to compose the Giant Canada Elite women’s team for next season. Chelsea Bilsbarrow, Claire Cameron, Jenelle Cassidy, Leah Guloien, Alena Radomsky, Katherine Short, and Jenny Trew will join forces, boasting top credentials with a strong focus on development as well.
Katherine Short (16) and Chelsea Bilsbarrow (19) are two of the most exciting young prospects in cycling on the BC scene. Katherine wins just about everything in her age group and is a strong contender even at the elite level in mountain biking, while Chelsea stormed onto the scene in 2006 taking the BC Jr. road championships and seventh at Nationals in her first season. Claire Cameron (24) is an elite track and road racer and a National Paralympic team member having raced in 2004 in Athens as a blind tandem pilot. Leah Guloien (25) is a very strong local road racer, who is rarely off the podium in any event she enters. Jenny Trew (25) is a track and criterium specialist having won multiple medals at track Nationals. Alena Radomsky (24) is a seasoned rider, and excellent team player with experience racing internationally. Jenelle Cassidy (29),while relatively new to road racing, made a quick ascent up the ranks in 2006 and brings a wealth of experience from being a National team downhill racer.
