REPORT
Four Manly-Warringah
Cycling Club riders lined up at the Randwick Botany Cycling Club Criterium
races on Saturday 9 March 2001. James Crane, Ryan Terry, Peter McNamara
and U19 Adam Hall joined local riders in several events around the tight
Heffron Park circuit.
Shaun Higgerson
started 1km behind, in the 6-rider A Grade group, over 36km. Higgerson
worked hard to bridge the gap but didn’t quite make it at the end. Final
placings were Liam Kelly, Jeff Jones and Clive Hammerson.
The 11-rider B Grade race featured some strong breakaways over the 32km
event with Randwick Botany riders Mark Robertson and Aaron Castles going
up the road after 8km. The bunch worked hard to bring them back at the
12km mark but Matthew Lucas broke away with 6 laps to go. The bunch was
back together for the mass sprint to the line. Castles led out but was
chased down by place getters Robert Cater, Matthew Lucas and George Pappas
from the Dulwich Hill Cycling Club.
Tim Rice and
Paul Kelly from the Sydney Cycling Club, broke away at the end of the
first lap in the 22-rider C Grade 28km race. Rice and Kelly maintained
the break until the halfway point when the bunch regrouped for the race to
the finish. Final placings were Tim Rice, Mark Davies and Dave Jackson.
Eastern Suburbs
rider Anton Rivera rode strongly to win the 16-rider D Grade 20km event.
Second was veteran Ron Sproule and third Tanya Bosch who is preparing for
the 2002 National Masters Cycling Championships in Alice Springs at the
end of March.
Randwick Botany D Grade rider
Janelle Lindsay has won selection in the AIS
Talent Search program. Sponsored by the Australian Sports Commission,
Lindsay has entered an intensive 8-week training program aimed at
developing her velodrome track cycling skills and strength.
Seven junior
race events were conducted. Results follow at the end of this report.
