Tough conditions again on Mt Terrick Rd for EMCC racing with the morning sunshine changing into drizzle and wind, just in time for our TT.
We welcomed Myles Higgins from Shepparton Cycling Club and Kim Gardner, who accompanied ‘Squizzy’ up for his last EMCC race before moving to Qld.
Over a 15km out and back course, A-Grade consisted of Cam Smith, Dave O’Brien and Matt Sullivan.
B-Grade was a small grouping of Nick Woods and Gordon Durnan while in C-grade, age group national champ Myles Higgins suited up alongside Claire Goodman, Matt Dobeli and Darren McKemmish.
In his final EMCC race, ‘Squizzy’ Taylor was up against Mel Smolenaars, Dave Oman and Kim Gardner.
Well done to the winners, thanks to Gary Needs, Ray and H for officiating in difficult conditions.
A big happy birthday to our photographer Richard Bailey. We’ll see you all in two weeks time for the final Lorraine and Ivan Collings Series race.
