Randwick
Botany junior rider and Australian U15 250m Track Time
Trial Champion, Luke Davision, stormed home to with the
28km C-Grade race at Heffron Park on Saturday 13 March
2004. Riding a tactical race, Davison hid at the back of
the 20-rider bunch for most of the race. |
|
Laura Bortolozzi (Team FRF
Couriers) rode strongly chasing down several attempted
breakaways. A wall of riders entered the final straight
with Davison sixth wheel. In the sprint to the line,
Davison stayed in the slipstream, to conserve energy,
until the final 50m then surged home to take the win.
Andrew Hall finished second with Chris Reynolds, in his
first race in C-Grade - third. |
|
 |
Peter ‘The
Machine’ McDonald set the pace in the 38km A-Grade race. |
|
Matthew Lucas and Chris Jenkins
(Team FRF Couriers) made a breakaway in the closing
stages, but 12 riders were together again for the final
lap. The King of Heffron Park - Anthony Spurgeon (Caravello)
scored another win, followed by Matthew Lucas, Jersy Sowa
and Peter McDonald. |
