Road Results

Race 6

The last two weeks has seen the weather decline and unfortunately rider numbers too. In race 6 Mark McLaren continued with his form improvement and another win. The sock draw should be overflowing soon with the additions of HCC socks from his wins! Visiting rider Harold Morton took out fastest time from scratch.

Race 7

Although being moved to a harder mark today, Mark showed further improvement riding off by himself and had chased down a minute and a half of his two minute gap by the 10k mark. He joined the 4th group not long after and worked well with the group rounding up all but one rider.

Nikki Menzel saw that the win was up for grabs and dropped her brother Rhyan to go it alone catching and passing Alan, Lisa and Cherie Kennet. She did this with around 10k to go and didn’t look back to take the win. The handicapper was sweating on Nikki’s win because if Mark took a fourth win in row Peter Noonan would have let the handicapper know he wasn’t doing his job well (because he can do it better!) 😉

Visiting scratchman Nicholas Kidman from Mt Gambier had a big task to chase 33min to limit. Nick took fastest time but In the end it was too big of a task. The middle markers certainly performed above expectations today by a good 5 minutes. Rohan Garfoot also battled hard from second scratch and could have done with a few mates to ride with.

We take a break now for two weeks of South West Series racing and then some cyclocross racing until mid July when we start to ramp things up again on the road. Looking forward to a return of healthy numbers to our racing then.
