WMAS D grade – Kym Daly – 3rd
JW19 – Lucy Cliff – 4th
U23 – Aidan Kampers – 11th
JM19 – Jarrod Williams – 6th
My race MM3 felt like a 70km criterium race as there were attacks going every lap! I was just trying to hang on, I got dropped after 50km when a gap opened up and I couldn’t bridge over to the main pack, better positioning for next time. It was the 1st time I have raced at the regatta centre and found it an excellent course! Nick Burke was supper strong all race (especially the neutral zone 2.5km before the start where he put 5om into everyone, LOL) and from his account got a little boxed in at the sprint to finish 9th.
