At Last a 2012 Banks Thargo SWS Points update!!

Hi to all Bansk Thargo South West Series Competitors and interested parties. This points update does not include the Gorae West (WET!) results, they will be included shortly. This years event has been a secret points event , a bit like the brownlow medal;.) The current top ten is a bit of a surprise to me, and it sets up the final events to be a bit of a show down. with 2 on equal first watch this space. To view the leader board, check out the comments below.

Race 3 "Doug Pettingill" Hamilton to Port fairy

In warm blustery conditions the 31st Doug Pettingill road race was held. There were 56 senior riders and 25 junior riders. The day started with 30km northerlies which were perfect tail wind conditions. As the day progressed and the riders got close to the finish the wind changed to North Easterlies which made for side winds. This made the race more difficult and strung out some of the bunches. The front markers were able to hold off the middle and back markers. 1st Cam Hart, 2nd Niel Duncan, 3rd Aaron Bingham, 4th Stuart Robinson, 5th Simon Povey, 6th Kate Winnen, 7th Shannon Malseed, 8th Spek, 9th Michael Bently, 10th Daniel Lehman. Fastest Time went to kieron Schnieder. Kieron was riding on block so that second scratch rode exceptionally well on the day. The points table is starting to take shape now for the 2012 Banks Thargo South West Series, three scratchmen hold the top three positions followed by several regular feature riders that are regular competitors in this series of road races. The Next event in the South West series is the Soldiers Memorial hosted by the Mount Gambier Club and the Mount gambier R.S.L. The full points table is viewable by clicking on comments below.

Coleraine And Gorae west

The Coleraine Combine and the Gorae west classic have both been held.
Both events saw the front and middle markers, stay away moving a few regulars up the South West series points table.

Darcey Wooley still holds out with a 20 point advantage over his nearest rivals in Stuart Robinson and Dale Cummings both on 140 points followed closely by Glen Schouller on 137 points then Spek on 136.

So in the last 2 events theoretically Darcy Woolley could be toppled from the top, it would take some bad luck on Darcey's part such as a dnf but stranger things have happened.

I am sure David Herrewyn will be pleased to see himself in the top ten.

Stacey Hocking has toppled Kate Winnen as the female leader in the series.
The last 2 events could see quite a few changes in the top ten.
