AUSTRALIAN NT - Season 23

[Vos]

Race 7 

Selections :
Dave Taylor      29   Bikeos (leaader)

Andrew Morse      19   Plopsala (xp)
Ben Brubaker      20   TeaMetal (xp)
Derek Jons      21   RHyNeStOnEs (XP)

Prospects: No expectations in what's expected to be my final race with a team leader that's a good distance away from the best.  Only two domestiques were used, and gambled with an aggressive tactic hoping to see a few left behind.

Results:
31st   Donald Odom      29   0: 45"
Ultimately, the domestiques left the team leader behind on the flat, along with a number of other team leaders (including the Dutch it appears - so that was as good as a win & a half given they would have expected 700-800+ points from the race).

For the 6th time in a row ;

Australia = world champion !

Very well done and congratulations, Aurora Australis !

I'm pleased with the results in all of the races, even race 7.  Now it's your turn Vos to make it 7 Aussie NT championships in a row, although the extra cobbles race isn't the nicest gift for us.
