Genevieve Jeanson
junior world champion on road
the 1999 season

"The 18-year-old native of Lachine capped her incredible, historic week yesterday, winning the junior women's world cycling championship road-race in Verona, Italy, only four days after having won the individual time-trial. Never before had a Canadian, female or male, captured a road-cycling world championship at any level, and in four days Jeanson has done it twice." DAVE STUBBS, The Montreal Gazette, October 9, 1999
