Wonthaggi Human Powered Grand Prix: Saturday Update

They're on track! Our 'Oldies' were feeling the heat like everyone else as the mecury pushed 30' today, but they were still loving it!

This sort of heat is a bit unusual for Wonthaggi, which has had it's share of rain, hail and icy cold nights since the first event here back in 97.

With an average age of 36 years young, Bendigo Oldies Racing are currently sitting happily in the top ten with no breakdowns or rollovers. A little bit of 2 wheelin' never goes astray though!


Here's an initial batch of pics, more to come when we're done and dusty!



Paul King, more than a little nervous, before his first stint.



Mike 'Turn-tapper' Turnbull, when is this man not happy?



Stuart Ridge, she'll be right mate... but we didn't say he go for 2 wheels!



Elsewhere...


The first corner was a tight squeeze on the first lap...


... and the race was on between Ex-Pats and TruBlu.
