REPORT
Josh Marden achieved a major
milestone in his short cycling career, winning the 36km
A-Grade event at Heffron Park on Saturday 24 April 2004.
Marden’s joined the Randwick Botany Cycling Club in January
2004 and won his first D-Grade race in February. He quickly
progressed through C and B Grades, scoring wins along the
way. Marden’s beat David Stewart (Eastern Suburbs) and David
Rae (Eastern Suburbs).
In junior racing, Randwick Botany
Cycling Club welcomed Southern Cross Cycling Club junior
riders to compete in 4 exciting events. including an Italian
pursuit team event.
|
 |
Oh yes, and Southern Cross also brought along some not
so junior riders. (Sorry kids, they get upset if you don't
put their photos in) |
One of the five events was an
Italian pursuit where five teams of five riders lined up for a
five-lap race. The slowest rider was on the front and the
strongest at the back of the team. At the end of each lap the
front rider peeled off until only one rider remained. The
winning team members were Dale Skribins, Tirian McManus, Bede
Kelly and Leah Guillan (Southern Cross).

Andrew Grant gave daughter Bonnie some expert tactics
and advise but Bonnie won anyway. Congratulations
Bonnie on winning the C Grade 2 kilometre scratch race. |
