REPORT

I warned Spurgie before the race that Adam had a BIG engine.  Well the boys couldn't hold Adam and the RBCC Time trial champion time trialed away which left the King to sprint it out with one of our young guns, Recent State U19 Track Sprint Champion, Luke Davison.  Well suffice to say that it is lucky that Spurgie is getting some victories on Tuesday nights.

B Grade and rather than using my tried and tested wheel-sucking strategy, I have been hitting out off the front of late. I just have to learn how to keep off the front !

In the end it was Sam Gilbert who came home in front of the bunch with consistent B grade placegetter Hendrik van Calcar coming in second
