She weighs 110lb (and is a pro cyclist), he weighs 110kg (ex pro hockey player ) and she challenged him up Houde. He accepted.
Come join tomorrow morning at 9:30 am at the base of Houde to cheer either on and get a ride out of it!
I’m finally gonna have to bail, but have fun and cheer loudly for Lex!
BOO
Double boo 
Really need to get that CX bike soon…
Shit went down; Laraque ended up in hospital.
Dom!!! – The funny thing is that she’s not the one who challenged him… he did. He somehow thought that he could beat her in a bike race and she accepted the challenge!
Turns out that even the bunnies are faster than him! And no… he really didn’t look good at the top of Houde! 
Hope he recovers well…
“The hockey player and the cyclist met in the spring, according to Lex, at a local food exhibition (Laraque is a vegan and part owner of a raw food company), and kept in touch. “He told me on Twitter that he could beat me in a bike race,” explains Albrecht, “I guess because I’m fairly small (5’ 2” to Laraque’s 6’ 3” and less than half of his 110 kg).""
Here come the “vegan diets compromise performance” arguments!
Anyone ever figure out what the purpose of this silly publicity stunt was? He didn’t actually think he could beat a pro cyclist did he…
Considering he’s used to taking on 250 pound hockey players, a 110 pound cyclist must’ve seemed like an easy task. /s
Not sure it was much of a publicity stunt for him, but definitely must have been good for Lex.
