14 July 2010
With a new start area for the 2010 SAFIRE Super
Classic, this saw riders starting on the main field which
allowed for the spectators to see all the top guys lined up.
The 45km event started at pace which saw small groups
forming along the road section. One the riders hit the first climb
of the day the race split up. The more in-form riders managed to
ride away from the chasers which left them out front to tackle the
Dam Wall crossing as well as the 8.2km NCT River Trail.
The top 3 riders managed to chase each other around the
45km course in a little over 1h50 and ending up in a sprint it was
Brendan Davids who piped it from Craig Paul and Andrew Warr.
The 25km event started at a similar pace but was on a more
chilled route. This gave the TV crew a chance to interview a few
riders in action. The 25km race was eventually won by Per Lofstrand
followed closely by Kevin Leveridge and Norman Hatherly.
The 10km event saw riders starting at a much easier pace.
The water table was stocked with plenty chocolates and sweets as
well as cold drinks for all the kids. Fun was defiantly had by all
10km riders.
