Junior Racing
A mixed bag of a roll around, racing and team pursuit practice was theme for Tuesday Night Junior Racing as everyone put the finishing touches on their Nationals build-up. Unfortunately a crash in C Grade marred the end of racing - we wish the girls who crashed (‘real’ bike racers now!) all the best for a speedy recovery, so they can get back to their speedy selves!

Senior Racing
A strong A Grade field was the feature of Senior Racing, with a great battle between young and old(er), with good close racing particularly between U19’s Josh Haggerty and Nick Kergozou and Master’s weapons Jerry Stock and Andrew Lienert, with the rest of a strong field nipping at their heels. In B Grade, the girls were keeping the boys honest with some good close racing, with Grant Toomey and Jen Muhl the B Grade riders of the night.
C Grade was a small field with most people starting to back off their training in the final week before Nationals, but we welcomed new-comer Jaime Wilson who rode strongly, with Kerry Cox pushing hard and finishing strongly showing she is coming into form ahead of Nationals. Kate Wilson unfortunately took a tumble in the final race, but gallantly got back on her bike again - we hope she is back into full training sooner rather than later!
