It was a smaller field than usual that contested the Sundays Tracey Romans Memorial crits with A grade largely absent and the remaining few rolled into B grade. No doubt the suspect forecast, early damp conditions and Mothers Day had an impact on numbers but those who raced got through without incident and enjoyed some competitive racing. It was also great to have a number of ladies racing again competing for overall medals and ‘One Tough Lady’ awards.
In B grade, 3 riders made a break at around the 40 min mark and were not seen again until the finish with the remainder given the bell before the breakaway so they got to witness the finish from the sidelines. C grade also split evenly early into 2 with the breakaway also staying clear until the finish line. No reports from D or E grade racing but send anything through on messenger and will add it.
There was no prize money from the days racing however medals were awarded and entry fees from the days racing will be donated to an Ovarian cancer research charity.
Congratulations to the days winners and place getters:
3rd – Vanessa Goss

The wet road surface meant no timing wire could be placed across the road so unfortunately no MyLaps electronic timing results for this race.
