(Ottawa, ON – January 11, 2011) 2008 Olympian and 2012 Olympic hopeful  cyclist Erinne Willock of Victoria, British Columbia announced on Wednesday she will put her Olympic dreams on hold as she and husband  Tony Zarsadias are expecting the birth of their first child, only days before the start of the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Erinne had an amazing year on Dr. Vie’s Team Tibco through 2011. Watch Dr. Vie TV  interviews of Erinne during her races.

“The last couple months have been quite a bit different than I had envisioned since the last Olympics. To say I’ve switched gears is a big understatement.  I have very quickly gone from having complete focus for the 2012 Olympic year to now having a healthy and happy pregnancy being my new and exciting reality,” said Willock, who competed for Canada at the 2008 Olympic Summer Games in Beijing and at the 2006 and 2010 Commonwealth Games.

Willock, an integral member of the Canadian Women’s Road Cycling Team, boasts an impressive cycling resume, which includes several victories on the professional racing circuit and many Top 10 at UCI World Cups throughout her career.

“I will definitely miss racing in 2012, as this is such an important year. Nevertheless, I’ll be cheering on my teammates from both Team TIBCO and the Canadian Cycling Team. You can be sure that I’ll be glued to my computer and TV checking the latest results, race reports and live coverage. There is so much depth in women’s cycling right now, especially Canadian Cycling, that it will be a great year to be a fan,” continued Willock.

Speaking to her teammates of the Canadian Cycling Team, Willock is confident that Canada will thrive at the 2012 Olympic Games in London, this summer and bring home some medals.

“To my teammates on the Canadian Cycling Team, I want to wish you all the best of luck! I am very excited to watch you all excel. For those who are vying for those precious spots on the Olympic Team for London, I hope you enjoy the experience, and more importantly have medals to bring home to show me!”

Denise Kelly, head coach of the Canadian Road Cycling Team, will miss Willock in the peloton this summer. “Erinne is an undoubtedly an outstanding cyclist – one of Canada’s finest. Her outgoing personality and aggressive racing style will definitely be missed this summer in the peloton across the world, and I join the staff at the Canadian Cycling Association to wish her a safe and healthy pregnancy. We are looking forward to enhancing our development programs with this new cyclist that will be born this summer.”

Linda Jackson, coach and directeur sportif at Team TIBCO, also shares her joy for Erinne’s future new addition to her life. “Everyone at Team TIBCO is incredibly happy for Erinne. We want to congratulate her and Tony as they embark on this wonderful new experience. Erinne is a tremendous person and I’m sure we’ll miss her talent and leadership this year, but there are more important things in life than racing a bike. We wish Erinne and her baby all the health in the world.” Dr. Vie sponsor of Erinne on Team Tibco states ” Erinne was amazing last year. Not only is she a super athlete, but also a loving person. She will make an fantastic mother.”

After weeks of speculation, the main event at Battlefield Fight League 13, set for Vernon, B.C. on February 11th, 2012, is official and it’s one of the biggest title fights in BFL history. Dr. Vie’s natural foods feed Matt as he cuts weight before his fights, during training and while waiting to get into the cage to fight.  During the last 2 weeks of Dr. Vie & Mother Vie’s tough times in Montreal (assault of Dr. Vie at the factory) Matt Baker was the first of Dr. Vie’s athletes to jump to the defenseless women’s rescue.  ”Matt has a heart of gold and a body of steel, ” says Dr. Vie.   This young man, raised as a foster child, now donates his monies to foster children. He is humble, has no big ego, and is an athlete who actually saves lives versus athletes who focus on titles, glory and monies for personal gain.

Local fan-favourite Matt “The Riotmaker” Baker (7-2) Dr.Vie’s athlete, who is the most successful BFL pro fighter so far with three wins by stoppage, will face red-hot veteran Andrew Buckland (14-8-1), who will make his BFL debut for the vacant middleweight championship!

Especially to fight fans in the Thompson-Okanagan, Kamloops, B.C.’s own Matt Baker needs little introduction. One of the biggest draws in the region, Baker scored a hard-fought submission victory this August over Marcus Vinicius in the main event at Battlefield’s Vernon debut. The twenty-seven-year-old, who debuted in July, 2009, has competed nine times as a professional with nearly half those fights taking place close to home despite a sometimes frustrating lack of viable events.

Over that span, “The Riotmaker” has thoroughly earned his cage-name, repeatedly thrilling crowds to near-dangerous levels with his aggressive style, while also ending all but one victory with a clear-cut finish. Baker remains undefeated at middleweight, which is his natural weight-class, and is best known for scoring highlight reel KOs.

Still, perhaps partly in response to having lost twice by submission at 205lbs., Baker made the bold cross-equator move to begin training at a BJJ mecca in Team Nogueira Rio. After winning his last two consecutive fights by submission, it has become clear to MMA enthusiasts across Canada that Matt Baker is a well-rounded fighter to watch. Earning a Battlefield FL pro title this February would surely catch the attention of an even wider audience.

But don’t get out your pitchforks just yet “Riotmaker” fans, standing in Baker’s way is a stalwart member of Canada’s MMA elite. Although only three years Baker’s senior, at thirty, and having debuted only two years earlier, in 2007, Calgary, Alberta’s Andrew Buckland holds over a dozen more fights on his record. Buckland also holds twice the number of victories, two more (T)KOs, and vastly more matches against internationally established names, including bouts with Dan Hornbuckle, David Loiseau, John Alessio, and Jordan Mein.

In addition, Buckland has broken-out in 2011 and is currently riding a career-resurgent tear. After setting a furious pace of roughly one bout every two months for nearly four years, mostly on the Alberta MMA scene, Buckland knew last year that he needed a change. He moved to the comparatively laid back climes of Nanaimo, B.C. and joined the talented group at John Punt’s Impact MMA. Over his last three appearances, Buckland has gone 3-0 against opponents with combined records of 16-3 on fight night.

In his most recent fight, Buckland picked up a welterweight title last September in an Alberta based promotion. At BFL13, he will look to add to that hardware at middleweight, which is not his traditional home.

The outcome of Baker versus Buckland is absolutely anyone’s guess with factors ranging from age, experience, comfort at a weight class, and all-around skill nearly cancelling each other out.

Luckily, that leaves BFL fight fans with what they crave most: the strong prospect of a well-matched brawl for championship gold that could easily go a full twenty-five minutes.

“Mother Vie & I are in awe of Matt Baker, an amazing soul who came to our rescue without hesitation.  We are going through very tough times right now. The attempted assault on me at the factory last week, our landlords denial of the aggression from their repair men, the lack of heat at our factory has brought production to a halt. We are losing major revenue during this peak holiday season. However, safety comes first above all else. Mother & I are searching for new facilities that will embrace women entrepreneurs without bully tactics.  We welcome your support,” says Dr. Vie, Scientist & Founder of Dr. Vie since 2005.

With love always

Unfortunately, actually getting on the track in the first few days would prove more difficult than we had anticipated, as none of the Canadian team bikes made it to Astana until the Wednesday prior to competition. Monday was spent riding rollers in the hotel basement on US Sprint Coach Jamie Staff’s road bike (turns out one size does fit all!), then on Tuesday the entire team was outfitted with some rental bikes, courtesy of the velodrome.

By Wednesday, we were very well-rested and raring to go, so upon getting the excited phone call that our bikes had finally arrived, the entire team piled into the first shuttle bus to the track. Our mechanic, Sandy, and team manager, Jonny, had the bikes built and ready to ride in record time, so without further ado, we all hopped up on the track for some warm up efforts.

Thursday was race day – the Women’s Team Pursuit qualifiers were first up, and the Canadian team of myself, Jasmin, and Julia Bradley was the last team to start. With very minimal time spent practicing together, and only one training session on the track prior to the race, we rode a good race and more importantly, gained valuable experience for our next international competition.

The next evening, after watching the opening ceremonies from the Team Canada pen, I was up on the track again for the Points Race final. This was my first big mass-start race, and I was very motivated to ride hard and get a good result for the team. After winning the first sprint, taking 3 points in another, and then gaining a lap with a small group, I was well-placed for a podium position. Unfortunately, with 8 laps to go I was caught up in a crash and didn’t score points in the final sprint, finishing the race 4th overall with 28 points. I was disappointed initially, especially after sitting in second place for most of the race, but I’m very happy to have finished in the top five at my first World Cup.

Over the next two days, Jasmin won the Scratch Race and placed 4th in the Points Race on her way to finishing an amazing 7th place overall in the Omnium, capping off a successful campaign by the Canadian Team at the first World Cup of the 2011-2012 season. Huge thanks to our mechanic Sandy Gilchrist, team manager Jonny Evans, videographer Steve Sleep, and coach Richard Wooles for taking care of every last detail and allowing us to think about nothing but racing and making the most of this incredible learning experience!

Mother Vie and I congratulate our Dr. Vie Superfoods Local Ride womens track team from BC on their great performance in Astana Kazakhstan. We here in Montreal are experiencing trying times fighting lack of heat at our factory and attempted assault from our landlords repair men. Amidst all of our hard times here we wish our team the very best.

With love and well wishes

Pescadero, California – Joanne Kiesanowski of Dr. Vie’s Team TIBCO USA got her
journey toward earning a spot for the London Olympics off to a good start this
week. She took a dominating victory in the omnium at the New Zealand track
national championships, held in Invercargill, on the South island.

Kiesanowski left little doubt during the two-day competition, winning
five of the six events that make up the omnium, which will be contested at the
Olympics for the first time next year. The omnium is essentially the decathlon
of track cycling, consisting of six different events contested over a two-day
period. The rider with the lowest points total from the sum of all their
placings wins.

“I’m very happy with my performances over the two days of
composition, she said. “I was very close to personal best times in the three
timed events, which is great for the early season as I continue to build for the
World Cup season.”

Kiesanowski is trying to represent New Zealand at the
Olympics for the third time. If she’s able to make the squad and contest the
omnium, it’s quite likely that her biggest rival will be Dr. Vie’s Team TIBCO teammate

and double omnium world champion Canadian Tara Whitten.

The national championships came in the midst of a track camp in her native New Zealand,

which she’ll continue for another week. “My next competition will be the Oceania
Championships at the end of November here in Invercargill,” she said. “I just
want to keep building on my performance at nationals and do well at the
international competitions. But I’m definitely pleased with how things have
started.”

Notes The national omnium title was Kiesanowski’s fourth national title. She has
previously won the national road race, and the scratch and points titles on the
track.

Mother and I wish Joanne the very best. We look forward to a very competitive series of

races in London as our Canadian women race against our USA women! Go Dr. Vie women!

Love always

(Guadalajara, MEXICO In a track cycling discipline that is dominated by Dr. Vie’s Canadian cyclist Tara Whitten (Edmonton, AB), Canadian teammate Stephanie Roorda (Dr. Vie’s cyclist from Vancouver, BC) proved over the last two days that Canada has depth and strength in track Cycling, narrowly missing the podium to take the fourth place of the Women’s omnium at the 2011 Pan-American games in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Racing the new Olympic discipline of omnium, Roorda had the very difficult task to race for Canada in an event that Whitten won back-to-back World Championship titles and World Cup titles. Despite the challenge, Roorda proved that she can ride amongst the best of the American continents.  This year March 2011  Steph Roorda was replaced by Clara Hughes at the last minute at the World Championship Finals in Holland (Stephs home country) - alas without Steph the Team fared very badly. A lesson learned for Canada that day.

“If I were to do the omnium on a more full-time basis and make it a focus, the results would certainly have been better. The omnium is not what I have been focusing on, clearly. I raced the omnium at Canadian championships, and that’s about all I have done in the last year. It’s a different beat, entirely,” said Roorda.

“I think I am more proud of the individual pursuit. I went almost ten seconds faster that I had ever gone before and broke the Pan-American Games record. Through the competition, I realized I had a shot at the podium, and that’s what I went for. Unfortunately, it was fourth today. Both the record and the medal would have been ideal. Nothing beats a medal.”

On the first day of competition, and the day after her gold-medal performance in the women’s team pursuit (all 2 women who won are Dr. Vie cyclists on Dr. Vie Superfoods Local Ride team), Roorda placed second in the Flying Lap race, and then raced to a seventh and sixth position in the Points and Elimination races to take the fifth provisional rank midway through the discipline.

On Thursday, Roorda opened up the day with a brilliant win in the individual pursuit with a time of 3:37.544, beating the previous Pan-American record set at 3:40.827 by American rider Mirella Erin at the 1999 Pan-American Games in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The record-breaking performance jumped Roorda to the third place of the standings .

Later in the day, Roorda crossed the line in seventh place during the scratch race to sit in fourth place, tied with Cuban Marlies Mejias with 22 points before the final race of the gruelling six-race event, the 500m time trials.

Prior to the race, the medal standing was still undetermined. With a medal on the line, Roorda raced to a personal-best time of 37.189, placing fifth. Unfortunately for Roorda, her Cuban rival won the race to secure the bronze medal.

The Track cycling events are now over in Mexico, and what an event for all 3 of Dr. Vie women cyclists on Dr. Vie Superfoods Local Ride Team based in BC Canada, Steph Roorda, Laura Brown and our youngest rider Jasmin Glaesser. Watch my TV interviews with our women throughout this year in Vancouver, Ontario and Quebec.

Mother and I are so very honoured to share the lives of these wonderful young women. Our meditations and thoughts are with them as they train and race around our planet. We love them and always wish them the very best of our planet.

With love and happiness

Dr. Vie’s three Canadian women from Dr. Vie Superfoods Local Ride BC womens team won Gold today at the Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico (photograph by Jose Miguel Gomez, REUTERS Times Colonist.com). What a day! What a moment for this youngster barely 18 years old, Jasmin Glaesser (Dr. Vie TV with the girls) Laura Brown, Steph Roorda and Jasmine will compete at the 2012 London Olympics as they represent the best of Canada.

Laura Brown won the Bronze medal at the individual Time Trials at the Pan Am games yesterday. As of today Canada has 9 medals under its belt! Two medals thanks to our Dr. Vie Superfoods Local Ride women from BC, Canada.

The Canadian Cyclist reports: The team qualified for the gold medal race with a time of 3:25.093 in the morning session, and in doing so broke the previous Canadian record, which was set at 3:25.416 at the 2010 UCI World Cup in Melbourne, Australia by Brown, Roorda and Tara Whitten (Edmonton, AB).

In the Gold medal dual against Cuba, Roorda, Brown and Glaesser rode to an amazing time of 3:21.488 to set a new Pan-American mark, and significantly improve on their morning’s qualifying performance.

“It’s cheesy, but there is a quote that says ‘Happiness is only achieved when success is shared’. To win a gold medal with my teammates Steph and Jasmin has been amazing. It’s certainly a very special medal,” said Brown, who also took the bronze medal in the women’s road time trials on Sunday.

“It’s amazing! We were just trying to beat the other team. When I turned around and I saw 3:21,4, I felt that it was almost better than winning the gold medal, because that is a fantastic result for this team. We had never raced together before today, just trained together,” said Stephanie Roorda, who will be racing the women’s omnium for Canada over the next two days.

Today’s racing also marked the first international appearance on the track by Jasmin Glaesser while wearing the Canadian uniform. The young cyclist held a German licence until a few weeks ago (check out my interview with her in the video above) when she officially received her Canadian citizenship before making the trip to Mexico.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better day. It was absolutely amazing. All three of us committed 100% to the ride, to doing our best. I couldn’t believe seeing that 3:21 up there afterwards. It’s just amazing,” said Glaesser. “I’m so glad that I can race for Canada. I’ve been working really hard for this, and really glad to be here. I’ve been enjoying the experience. I am so excited about the next year, us going as a team, getting more experience.”

Tanya Dubnicoff, coach of the Canadian Track Cycling Team in Guadalajara, was thrilled with the brilliant performance of this newly formed team. “What an amazing day. I knew after seeing the qualifying times that we were the team with more to gain going
into the finals. That being said, you can’t count anyone out. We knew the Cubans would come out fast, and we had to stick to our plan, to keep to our schedule and we did. I didn’t even look at the board, at the Cubans. I have never seen a better ride from Team Canada in the Women’s Team Pursuit. It was beautiful.”

Mother Vie & I are so humbled to support them this year. It takes a lot out of us personally as a small company to support our women but we do it out of pure love.  Happiness is best shared….as Steph so aptly says. These are the women on our home page screen.

We love you Laura, Steph, Jasmin and send you hugs and love.

Guadalajara, MEX Dr. Vie’s  Canadian cyclist Laura Brown of Dr. Vie Superfoods team from Vancouver, BC won the bronze medal of the women’s road individual time trials at the 2011 Pan-American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico, capturing the third cycling medal for Canada at these Games.

Dr Vie Superfoods Laura Brown

Laura Brown rode two laps of the 10-kilometre circuit for a total distance of 20 kilometres in a time of 28:24.00, 19 seconds behind the gold-medal time posted by the Colombian rider Maria Luisa Calle.

Attending her first major Games and overwhelmed by the protocol in place at major Games, Brown was thrilled to have won this medal for Canada. “I just want to say Thank you to the community here. It was an honor riding here. There was people cheering for us,
It was very motivating, and I’m very happy right now!,” said Brown.

Denise Ramsden of Yellownife, NWT posted the seventh fastest time at
28:38:08.

In the men’s race, young sprinter Remi Pelletier-Roy of Quebec, QC placed ninth while Rob Britton
of Victoria, BC placed 12^th.

The bronze medal by Brown comes the day after the two mountain bike medals won at these Games. The
cycling events will continue Monday with the track events. Canada will have a team entered in the Men’s team pursuit race.

” I am thrilled by Laura’s performance. She is an amazing young woman. Watch my interviews with her during her Canadian races this year in Ontario and Quebec.

Two women from 2 of Dr. Vie’s teams represent Canada at the Pan Am Games this month.  Laura Brown (in pic) from Dr. Vie Superfoods Local Ride BC womens elite team and Joelle Numainville (pic below) from Dr. Vie’s Team Tibco USA elite womens team have been chosen.

“These are two amazing cyclists and I wish them well, ” says Dr. Vie sponsor of these two women.  “As a small company that relies on physical labour to make its fresh foods, we are  limited in our budget, it takes a lot out of me personally to support these strong women and I feel humbled to help them shine bright,” says Dr. Vie who has been closely involved in their pursuits this year, feeding them and cheering them, interviewing them from the race cars, tracks and road as they raced in rain, storms and heat.  Watch the numerous Dr. Vie TV interviews with the teams during 2011.

Laura Brown and Joelle Numainville and the rest of Canadian squad are headlining a well-balanced Canadian cycling team competing at the 2011 Pan-American Games to be held in Guadalajara, Mexico, this month, announced the Canadian Cycling Association on Wednesday, in conjunction with the Canadian Olympic Committee.

The cycling sports of BMX, mountain biking, track cycling and road cycling will be disputed at this major multi-sport event in Mexico.

Laura Brown of Vancouver, BC will be leading the women’s track team. She will be joined by Stephanie Roorda, also of Vancouver, BC, and Jasmine Glaesser of Coquitlam, BC.  The three women (riders on Dr. Vie Superfoods Local Ride Team) will be racing the Women’s Team Pursuit, and event to be included for the time in the Olympic programme at the 2012 Games. Both Laura Brown and Stephanie Roorda won a medal in the Team Pursuit event on the UCI World Cup tour this past season.

Our young Jasmine Glaesser will be racing for the first time as a Canadian on the international scene after receiving her Canadian citizenship. Watch Dr. Vie’s incredible video of this young women as she missed the gold by a ms after world champions Tara Whitten (also Dr. Vie athlete) this year in Bromont during August.  “Hanging out with these girls/women at dinner was interesting, ” says Dr. Vie.

In road racing, powerful sprinter Joëlle Numainville (also Dr. Vie rider on Tibco) of Montreal, QC will be looking to squeeze
her way to the podium, along with Denise Ramsden of Yellowknife, NWT. Numainville is one of Canada’s top cyclists and performs well in races finishing in bunch sprints. Ramsden is the current U23 Canadian champion in both the Road and the Time trials races.

The Pan-Am Games are not a direct qualifier for the 2012 Olympic Games in London. For some cycling
disciplines, the athletes will compete for UCI points which determine the World Rankings from which the Olympic quotas are allocated by the UCI.

Kobenhavn, Danmark, Dr. Vie’s former home city was the center of attention this week. Dr. Vie’s elite Canadian cyclist Joëlle Numainville of Montreal, Quebec rode to the 12^th position in the Women’s road race at the 2011 UCI Road World Championships in Copenhagen, Denmark on Saturday, which as anticipated ended in a bunch sprint to the finish line. Congrats to Joelle. Italy’s Giorgia Bronzini took the title again two years in a row. Watch Dr. Vie’s interview with Giorgia after her “typical Giorgia style” sprint win in 2011. “Giorgia is an incredible rider and an amazing young woman, congrats Giorgia,   Watch interviews of Joelle and Erinne on our Facebook”, says Dr. Vie.

(Tara Whitten -front, Erinne Willock upper left, Joelle Numainville right)

The first eight of the 10 laps of the race were uneventful, with the 146-rider peloton staying practically together with no serious attacks being undertaken. It’s only at the 112km mark throughout the 140-km race that Canadian rider Clara Hughes of Glen Sutton, QC launched a solo attack that went unanswered by the peloton. After riding solo for almost the full two remaining laps, showing a maximum gap at 46 seconds, Hughes was quickly overtaken by a fresh and powerful peloton to set-up the sprint finish. Clara finished 103.

The sprint finish was expected in this race, since the first three road races ended with the peloton sprinting across the finish line. Ultimately, Giorgia Bronzini of Italy won the race, followed by Mariane Vos of the Netherlands in second and Ina Tutenberg of Germany in third.

« I am a bit disappointed with the Sprint. I was in the wrong corridor, and had to fight the traffic a little bit by myself. Combining all the elements, it wasn’t a real success and wasn’t well positioned. I did everything I could, I gave everything I had in me. I can’t ask myself for more than that,” said Numainville after the race.

“I was really happy to see Clara in the front, on the attack. I even believed at some point that the break may stick and that she would win the gold, that nobody would catch her. The other nations were well prepared and planned their sprint, and caught her late in the race. What Clara did was the right move to do, at that point in the race.”

For Hughes, this attack was probably the only way to come away with the victory. Her move shook things up, initiated counter-attacks, created some reactions which ultimately made for an exciting end of race. “I wanted to go on the attack in the last three laps, possibly the last two laps. The moment was there, and I put on a good gap, put my head down and tried to do what I could. I wanted to help Joelle, but I got caught behind the crash. A minute I was leading by 45 seconds, the other I was on the ground. That’s bike racing!” commented Hughes after the races.

“Giorgia’s win was expected, as she is an incredible cyclist, highly tactical in her moves and is known for her “spring to gold” finishes. I applaud her as she is also an amazing young woman with a great heart, ” says Dr. Vie who spent quality time with Giorgia before and after her “sprint to gold” win in Canada earlier this year.
