Another mild and sunny winters day greeted the riders for todays crit races across grades A through E for the downhill finish into a light headwind.
Prior to racing Vince checked off many members transponders to confirm correct operation and to renew subscriptions where needed. Please make a point of getting a checkup for future races if you missed out on this occasion.
No race reports today however feel free to send in any to Northern messenger for any of the individual grades & I’ll post them up.
Thanks to all the usual suspects that allow these events to take place such as Albert (Commissaire), Bruce (Timing), Faye(rego), Paul (Main Corner), Chooka (Flag marshal), David H (Van /Setup/Briefing). Also to David McKenzie for picking up the other corner marshal position today.
