For the Woodsie fans

OK Woodsie fans, here is the promised photo:

The team had a grand day out yesterday. Alex, Thor and Darvo all posting good results in the A final. Larry was not feeling 100% so it was a good effort to get around the course. The winning times were much shorter than predicted, possibly due to the drier than expected track conditions. There were more complex route choices than previous races and there was a great deal of variability in ridability of the dotty tracks, so I for one, spent a lot of time doubting my decisions as I was going. As usual, I got better in the second half and finished quite strongly. I'm very happy with my results and spend a lot of time looking at how many people are actually BEHIND me. :-)

Woodsie and Tony both had really solid rides in the B final, though Woodsie stopped to give aid to a rider that had a big stack on leg three which affected his time.

Relays today. Team 2 strategy is to send big Tony off first with his elbows out to see how many he can take out on the 200m run to the bikes.
