Weekend racing results.

It was again a great weekend of racing at the @princegeorge100miler . @janwithaarxcr not only taking the win, but he defended his title from last year making it 2 in a row.

@keagan_bontekoning also with a strong ride. Taking the KOM at the top of Swartberg, unfortunately luck was not on his side, getting a flat that cost him time. Fighting the odds, leaving everything out there and in the end he managed to ride his way into 3rd place.

Well doen, Jan and Keagan.

Yesterday @daniellev_dt lined up for the @durbie_dash

Lining up for the 86km gravel race. Overnight rain made for a wet and cold race, turning the gravel roads into slippery mud and deep ruts. Racing was fast no matter the weather conditions.

@daniellev_dt with a strong race taking 2nd place.

Well done, Danielle.
