McGill Cycling started 2012 off with an impressive weekend of racing at Princeton's New Jersey Devil. Despite gloomy forecasts, the weather played nice and the roads stayed mostly dry.

The criterium Sunday afternoon was a reprieve for the non-climbers on the team; with nothing more than a small power climb before the finishing straight this was a course for the pure sprinters.
