  Avanti Classic 2009

Sunday June 14 saw the 5th edition of the annual 80km Avanti Classic handicap race held on an undulating circuit based at Lowood and and travelling around Lake Wivenhoe. The front markers had 33min start on the red hot scratch bunch but would have needed every minute if they were to get the $2000 that was on offer for first across the line. They did get the money for first through the first lap but like the rest of the field the extreme speed of the scratch riders was too much.

  Tim Harris Wins in Lifecycle Kit

Recently we were emailed this photo of Tim Harris winning the Elite B category of the Grafton to Coffs Harbour in a solo breakaway. This was a great effort by Tim and one of those rare occasions where the breakaway keeps away from the pack.

 

 

We always love seeing photos of you riding and racing in the Lifecycle kit. So if you, like Tim, have won a race or achieved a personal milestone in Lifecycle kit why not drop us an email with a photo so we can post it in the Lifecycle gallery.

2nd place Avanti Classic finisher Adrian Booth (above in green) has been kind enough to submit this race report:

An 80km handicap held in and around Wivenhoe Dam, this event takes in some beautiful scenery and is fiercely contested by all who participate. Hosted by the Lifecycle club, Blair Stockwell has made this race an institution on the CQ racing calendar since Chris Locke won the inaugural event in 2002.
