Jayco Hun Tour - Lygon St support crits



The chance to race with a great bunch of blokes on Carlton streets (closed to traffic) in front of a bit of a crowd was just too much to pass up. Ben at The Power Tool Specialists in Carlton and Sam at The Spin Room invited me to join their motley crue to try and win our Masters B grade race, and that we did! After spending half the race on (and off) the front of the bunch, I tried my best to lead the team into the sprint by burying myself on the last lap. It worked and Ben came away with the win, and the cash!!!
Great fun on a great street circuit that suited me with 3 hairpin corners and 2 fast left handers. A bit sketchy when the we had the light shower and my back rubber slid a few inches sideways on a fast corner, but great fun.

Again next year? You betcha!
