| The NSW State U19 Men's Team
Time Trial State Champions on the starting line. From left, Robbie Cater,
Chris Jenkins, Ben Orr (at rear) and Individual U 19 Men's State Time Trial
champion, Shaun Higgerson right. "Uncle Bob" Higgerson looks on. |
The guys blast off the line on
their way to complete the 40 kilometre course in only 23 seconds over an
hour (Click on thumbnail images for full page

This was a very lucky shot that
I got of the guys powering up "Blood Hill". It was taken through the
front windscreen of the car whilst we were descending Blood hill about 70kph
behind the Men's team. So I hope you will understand it being a little
blurry |

| The Masters 1 to 3, Team 1, all looked very
happy at the start. The miserable weather and rain couldn't dampen
their spirits. From left Neil Morris, Mark "Slapper" Robertson, Dave
Jackson and Dave McPherson. |
A few of the Calga climbs soon knocked those
smiles off the boys faces as can be seen in this photo. That's the
look of genuine pain. Even the "Slapper" is not wearing his usual grin |
The Masters were powering. Here they
are catching Southern Cross about the 15km mark which was awesome given that
Southern Cross had started 9 minutes in front of them. |

| Here's our guys behind our old
mates from Bicisport. Graham Jones on the left and Steve "Dicko"
Dickson on the right. The boys had a little bit of bad luck with the
signs and our guys snuck past them. |
Here's RBCC Men on the start
line. From left Matthew Lucas, Scott McDonald, Aaron Castles & Clive
Hammerson. |
The men blast off the line and
get up to speed for the two lap, 80 kilometre course. |

| The Men looked hot on the first 40 kilometre
loop. Here they are powering up "Blood" hill. |
By the second lap however things were a
little different. I entitle this one, "Settle Scotty, Settle !!" |
I must say as a spectator this event was
extraordinarily exciting. Here's a typical view I saw for most of the
80 kilometres and half a tank of petrol. |

the ones he took on the day. |

giving a bigger picture of the scene at Calga. |
Randwick Botany would like to
thank all the NSW Commissaire's and voluntary personnel who made this
extraordinary event possible. Here is our old mate Ronny Peak making
sure everything was OK as the team approached one of the turns. Thanks
Peaky. |
