Grumpy Doug sorted the wheat from the chaff by slapping in-form riders with a hefty handicap or two for the latest edition of the Fat Dog Summer Series this week.
Picture this: Good Ole' Doug glances out the window and spies inclement skies.
'Can't let the team down though', he thinks, and bowls out the door.
What did he find........
Round 8 Results: There’s nothing like a couple of small inclines to cast a shadow of doubt in the mind of a few shaved legs cast astride some carbon fibre.
Great night had by all at the second race for the year.
I new the race would be close between some teams but it came right down to a hand full of seconds.
Summer, the only glimpse of summer was the very reluctant to race Summer Allen Foote, hubby Garth Foote putting the pressure on and it paid of. A rare win for Garth.
From Whangarei head north to Hikurangi. Turn left onto Jordan Valley Rd and travel about 5km to the first round-a-bout you come to. Park on the roadside verge or even better ride your bike there (there quite a few people who do this so you won’t be alone contact Race HQ at 09 430 6401 to hook up).
