Conditions
An unseasonal Northeaster. No rain. Pleasant riding conditions

Riders
B - Ian D (inaugural B grade start)
C - Micklan
Late - John Annoying - need to recalibrate that start time - its 2pm start if not day light savings

Outcome
B = Ian 10th
C = Micklan 4th
Annoying = late

C grade - Don't take your guns to town, son
C grade was dominated by Easts riders, who under instruction from the sideline no less, nursed their riders here and there, including an Easts rider coming second. DHBC attacked from the start, on the pimples, on the straight, in order to splay the Easts peril :evil: alas to no avail, the peril exchanged verbal tactics and plotted. Others attacked strongly with no sustained breakaways. Next time :wink:

Stats
Av over 36 kmph.

see this map of the winds (select sydney). There is a different map for the morning and afternoon and for different times of the year.

Indeed the rose indicates a southerly should have been blowing a gale...
