REPORT
|
 |
A regular sight over the last couple of weeks, Stuart
Colquhoun attacks off the front of the combined A/B grade
race. |
| |
|
|
 |
I think Stuart would have to get the "Most Aggresive
Rider" trophy for this race. If he was not attacking,
he was driving on the front of the bunch. Left, Stuart
takes A/B grade down the Heffron Park start/finish straight. |
| |
|
|
 |
A couple of riders didn't mind Stuart doing all that
work on the front because in the end it would come down to a
battle of the "Wheelsucks", sorry guys incorrect term,
"Sprinters". Left Matty Lucas holds off East's John
Kenny to take first place in the combined A/B race. |
| |
|
|
 |
Apologies to Daniel Vanolini. Results supplied to
cylingnews.com were incorrect. Daniel in fact came
third and Richard Lang 4th as the picture left clearly
indicates. That's the rear end of 2nd finisher John
Kenny in the foreground and Daniel and Richard can be seen
sprinting for third spot. |

Poor little darlings, Taylor "I am only a C grader"
Aitchison and Luke "I've been a bit crook" Davision. I
thought I heard violins playing as I listened to why these
"gun" juniors were not up to riding B grade. In the
end, they had remission from their collective illnesses and
managed to ride the distance no problems with A/B grade and
finish in the bunch sprint !!! Caravello rider Matty
Guillan was a good lad and lined up for B grade without a
whinge. Then again they tell me Domenic
Caravello has a big stick. |
|
 |
One of the Juniors who slipped through the cracks was
U17 Junior rider Aaron "I have been off the bike for months
and been sick" Bicknell who when everyone else was suffering
in C grade, rode around throwing smiles at me at my camera
position and having conversations with his fans on the
sidelines. There's Aaron enjoying his leisurely ride
in second wheel. Ask the girls for a B Grade number
next time Aaron. There's plenty of other under 17
riders with who you can exchange your tales of woe. |

Ross Mackay nearly killed himself coming to the front to
get his photo on the pimple. I missed it the first lap
round and told him to be on the front next lap. He
looked a little shattered second lap round then for some
reason I didn't see him on the podium. |
| |
|
|
 |
Rhys Fagan made it look pretty easy in the spint
followed a little further back by Lawrence Robinson. |
| |
|
|
 |
D grade action and RBCC Vice President, Tony Horneman
smiles as he pours on the wattage and has their legs of his
fellow D Graders screaming for mercy as he drives the D
grade bunch down the Heffron Park straight. You
couldn't have softened them up too much though Tony as the
two Steam riders simply rode away from the bunch on the bell
lap of the race. |
| |
|
|
 |
E grade action and RBCC's Herve Boutin (far left) is not
taking any chances as he stays wide wearing his trademark
elbow guards. |
