This group of students had roses for their Moms last week courtesy of Flowers Galore and their Flowers for Meaghan promotion. Anyone who dropped by the store last Thursday received a dozen roses for free. Owners Paddy and Sue Brown just asked that you pass a couple on to friends and family.
Chernove reflects on Paralympics trials and tribulations W T r e v o r C r aw l e y
ith a dislocated shoulder and numerous scrapes and bruises after crashing with five other riders in the Paralympic cycling road race, Tristen Chernove could’ve easily — and un-
derstandably — called it quits. However, that’s not in his nature. The Cranbrook cyclist, already with three medals to his name during his time at the Paralympics, picked himself up, fiddled with his
bicycle — which was still functional even though the handlebars were twisted and there was limited access to all gears because of a busted front derailer — and got back on the course. He finished in 15th place. “It’s unfortunate to not
have been able to contend for the win, but I’m more proud of that race than any of the races of the Games,” said Chernove. “Looking at my power profile data after the ride, it’s the strongest ride I’ve ever done. I went from several minutes be-
hind the whole pelaton to finishing 15th, which required a monumental effort. “…So I’m super proud of the effort, but I rode really hard to end up with the finish I had.” Chernove is back home in Cranbrook after a whirl-
wind experience at the Rio Parlaympic Games, nabbing a full spectrum of medals — gold, silver and bronze — while competing in track cycling and road racing events.
