Winners are grinners!!

Whoa! After a super hard training block and feeling like cr@p all week, I rocked up to the St Kilda criterium on Sunday not feeling too flash. After a pre-race coffee to get the heart started I reluctantly grabbed a number and lined up for the start. I’ll leave the race description to a quote from the club newsletter….

The B grade field was split very early and a three man break worked like a machine to hold off the bunch with a good 30 sec break for most of the race. A very strong and determined Todd Butterworth made several attempts to cross the gap but to no avail, and he was forced to rejoin the remains of the field. The three escapees were just too strong. Well done to SKCC riders Graeme Coull, Luigi Vecchio and Campbell Elliot who stayed away for the remainder of the race and placed in that order.

So it WAS worth getting out of bed after all.!!
