Results - Track Racing 14/10/2011

Another strong field took to the velodrome on Friday night under lights. Nathan Hardaker and Chris Jahnz dominated Open grade races, with Matt Hoy unlucky with several second places. Results in the other grades were mixed, a number of riders showing good form on the night.

Congratulations to the Italian Pursuit team of Zoe McDonald, Alyssa Saward, Shaun Cameron, Garry Cameron, Friedy Meinel, Richard Berends and Nathan Hardaker who for the first time in at least five years at the track caught and passed the opposition team to end the race three laps early.

Thanks to all those who helped on the night, Sue & Garry Cameron and Tracee and Geoff Hardaker. A reminder that Coffs Harbour is hosting the 2011 Country Track Titles as part of its annual track carnival on Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th of October. All welcome.
