Ryan MacDonald is fast, and now he has proof to back that claim up.  He has recently claimed title as the 2010 Junior National Road Champion. Ryan didn’t get where he is today by his great personality alone.  He has been busting his butt in Europe training during the month of May with the Canadian National Cycling Team. He had to give up a lot of quality time with family and friends.  Not to mention he had to keep up with that thing called school.  Arriving home just in time to write exams must have been tough.

Ryan learned a lot about what is required to compete at the World elite level from this experience. His main goal for this season was to do well at nationals and earn a spot for Worlds.  Looks like he is going to Worlds…Disney World also perhaps?

The thing we enjoy most about Ryan is the fact that he remains a humble champion and is always fun to ride with and a pleasure to be around. The folks in Pictou County are extremely proud of their new hero, as well as all of us from the cycling community in Nova Scotia. Ryan’s work ethic and tremendous accomplishment make him well deserving of Propeller Rider of the Month honours.

    Congrats Ryan. Keep up the good work. I have watched this young man mature in the local Mtb and road scene. There is a saying " it takes a community to raise a kid ". Today we can all be proud of our cycling "neighbors" here in N.S.
