Three Canadian racers placed in the top 15 during training runs at the Lake Louise World Cup downhill, including Jan Hudec, who led with the fastest time. Sweet! (anecdote: I vaguely remember Hudec training with our little Red Deer racing club a few times before being ushered off to Banff Academy for bigger, brighter things.)
Things are looking up for Canadian racers! Erik Guay brought home a World Cup win last year and things are shaping up nicely for this year.
Alas, I ended up a software engineer, but there are still opportunities for racing: I had an awesome time racing with CityLeague last year and hopefully I'll be able to get into some gates again once I get closer to a few mountains.
