Supervet's Racing:
GSCC Supervets Race 10th August 2022![]()
Fifteen hardy riders presented themselves to the starter on a brisk almost windless day. The
modified course using Forest/Noble Rd was utilised while the road works on Grays Rd continues.
New rider Ian Johnson holds off the field to take the win over the 39 km journey.
Kent Fuller lead the procession off limit at 23 minutes on his lonesome, a roll he is very
accustomed to.
Next at 17 minutes was a group of Green, Robinson, Riggs and the eventual winner Johnson.
The 12-minute bunch was made up of two boys and two girls in Stenos, Collie, Phillips and
Digenis.
Second scratch went off at 4 minutes represented by McKay, Burzacott and Cremiszewski and
settled into a good tempo right from the start.
The new look Scratch bunch headed off with Baille, McWaters and Fitzsimons in hot pursuit.
At the turn around on Forest Rd the field was starting to close in.
On the return bunches gradually started to fall apart with scratch and 2nd scratch working hard to
reign in the field.
Coming into Larcombes Rd 2nd scratch were surprised by a massive turn by Les discovering on
the turn towards Nobles Rd that Les was looking for the finish line.
When informed that there was still 10ks to go Les promptly lost the will to live and dropped off
the back.
At the Noble Rd turn around it became apparent that Johnson had a substantial lead and went
on to win by a comfortable margin. He was overheard after the race saying that he hoped the
handicapper didn’t notice him. The handicapper has some bad news for you, Ian.
The minor places were fought out between McKay and Burzacott.
Scratch had worked their way through the field staying together to the finish with David Baillie
taking out fastest time averaging 33.8 kph ( thank you Strava ).
