Cyprus - Report 1 - Iain
Nimmo
This is the first report from Iain Nimmo who is away in cyprus
for the next week or so to try and gain some UCI ranking points
to help him on his way to Commonwealth Selection. He is accompanied
by Stevie Jackson, Craig Hardie, Jono McBain, Stevie McEwen
and Janet.
Hi,
Weather ok, Race went reasonably well today, it was the E1
Race 2 start loops and then 4 laps. A hard race on a good
course. a stiff wind on the climbs made for heavy going up
the 350 metres per lap of vert.
Last years winner made it a double Micheal Weiss (Top 10
World Champ Finisher) while the lads got some good results
with Iain Nimmo finishing 14th after losing 2 places on the
last half mile, Jono McBain took 15th 1 minute down on Nimmo
for both riders to take UCI points. Craig Hardie finished
22nd after having a difficult last lap and being cought up
in a tussle with a German rider. Steve Jackson got 24th while
Steve McEwen was in 36th after puncturing early on.
Janet did the guys proud as acting team manager and fed the
guys with style while securing an invite to race in Isreal
later in the year, top bitch!
Later
Iain
