REPORT
A gusty 25km/h southerly breeze made riding conditions challenging during
the Randwick Botany Cycling Club race at Heffron Park, Maroubra, on
Saturday 28 April 2001. Finishing sprints down the 400m finish
strait were directly into the wind.

Grade 36km scratch race. Second across the line was Chris Rule
followed by David Gowty, third. Dave Stewart crashed in the final
