Apologies to the Juniors as once again the track seemed to be double booked with about 100 triathletes starting at the Junior appointed time of 4pm.  Thanks to parents Stuart Sharpe and Guy and Hanja Bicknell who took the juniors down to the netball courts and put together a skills/fun afternoon.  Don't forget no racing next weekend over Easter and Juniors returns to the 1pm timeslot the week after.

THANK YOU:

Thanks to Commissaires Joanne Buckton & Helen Vella.   Thanks to our marshals Grant Chellew and Jason Webb.  Thanks to Fred Vella for assisting in the deployment and retrieval of all the safety equipment and for running the canteen.  Thanks to Leanne Emery for being our First Aid Officer.

REPORT 

 

A good field of A graders took the line. A couple were away at the State Criterium Championships at Dunc Gray criterium circuit.  Congratulations to our Sister club rider, Pete "The Machine" McDonald from Caravello who came second and RBCC's Robbie Cater who came third.
   

It wasn't long till big Troy Glennan skipped away off the front of A grade with RBCC's Dave Treacey.  The pair worked well together to stay away from the A peleton.  Dave is off to Malta next Friday to try out for the Matese Commonwealth games team to compete in Melbourne.  We wish him the best of luck.
   

The A grade finish with Dave Treacey crossing the line in second place with half a Bianchi of winner Troy Glennan just in front of him.  Nathan Page had a great race and in the latter stages, he too skipped off the front for a solo third place ride-away.  Nathan is getting "race-fit" and is improving every race, so watch out guys
   

Whilst he is a regular at Tues night racing at Heffron, we haven't seen John Sunde at Heffron on Saturday for a number of years.  John was going fantastically for 15 laps then "out the back".  Sorry John, we race 18 laps not 15. 
   

The B grade Randwick Botany "Train" powers up the pimple with Marco Turner at the front.  (This photo must have been taken just after I did my turn)
   

B Grade on the line and check out our model on the startline, sporting the latest Randwick Botany wardrobe ensemble.
   

C grade on the line ready to go and Scotty Rice checks his helmet for a comfort fit whilst Craig Blundell makes a last minute check of his gears. 
   

Adam Mitchell of the United Kingdom, displays an A or B grade skill as he sits up and salutes the crowd as he takes victory in the C grade division.

Note:  Don't forget there will be no racing next weekend (26 March) as it is the Easter holiday weekend.  Racing will resume the following weekend being 30 May 2005.
