Mayor disappointed after Montréal - Boston axing

Nashua, New Hampshire Mayor, Bernie Streeter, has hit out at the city's disinterest in Le Tour Montréal - Boston, a new UCI 2.1 event which was postponed last week. The eight day event, originally slated for August 5-12, was postponed after issues with the "logistical complexity" of planning the event which was to cross six different jurisdictions, including New Hampshire, on the trip from Montréal, Canada to Boston, United States of America.

"This announcement is disappointing to say the least," read a statement from Streeter. "As mayor, I am personally offended by the city of Boston's lack of interest and support. I know our state officials who have worked long and hard on this event also are crushed with this decision."
