TRISTAN ‘ITS ALL IN THE THROW’ WARD Tristan Ward got the first double win of the summer when he won
a tight sprint to narrowly edge out Jack Bennett and his Crit Dawgs team mate Alex Nazarewicz. After the perfect lead out, Jack
Bennett couldn’t help but lament on his 6th podium from 7 races and could only describe Tristan Ward’s talents as ‘freakish’ after the race.
Meanwhile as Sydney was preparing to batten down the
hatches before the freakish rain storm predicted the next day a slightly smaller than usual turnout of 80+ riders lined up to bat-
tle the wind and concrete of Heffron Park. The smaller bunches seemed to work more cohesively in the blustery easterly wind which provided a little more shelter than the usual NE gusts.
B grade came together nicely after 5 laps and with the stronger B1 riders quickly upping the tempo but not enough to catch C grade single handedly. A grade helped out there when they stormed
through with 3 laps to go and a lap later the race was altogether with huge field of 64 riders up for the finish.
Harrison Bailey in his first race back at Heffron after his European
campaign lead it into the straight with Naz doing the job for Bennett on his wheel but at the finish Ward was just too quick for everyone. Week 3 winner Michael Potter was 4th making the top 4 place
getters all race winners in recent weeks. Liam Kelly snuck in for 5th to get his name in the results for the first time this summer.
Quite the battle going in B grade with Adam McCoy coming out the winner in only his second race of the year to back up his outright
win from Week 1. Mark Rowling had another good race while Chris
Ball was in the placings again. At 100 metres to go Charlotte Culver was looking every bit the winner of C grade however last weeks
runner up Fabian Kegel sprinted like it was his own World Title race to grab the C grade win.
Charlotte Culver still picked up the prize and kudos for 1st woman and that’s not a bad result on your birthday in only your second
start on a Tuesday Night. As the saying goes, “If you can win at Heffron, …………….”

THE KING of HE ANTHONY SPURGEON
“I’ve received hundreds of messages over the last few weeks.
Yes, it is correct. I wasn’t a Heffron to witness another classic race or two. But I have people everywhere to help me. I am THE KING.” THE KING rates for us the top place getters of Tuesday Night Heffron Week 8.
1st A: Tristan Ward Tristan, I believe you have one thing going for you....the mullet. This bullshit statement that you’re prepared to get the clippers out if you loose the upcoming Trophy Race is nonesense. If you don’t win you, it ain’t the fault of all that hair. It will be because you are not good enough which frankly, never happened to me. 2nd A: Jack Bennett Here’s a conversation I taped between you and your dad (Grant Bennett): Jack: Wait, Dad. Don’t you remember the time you told me “If you ain’t first, you’re last”? Grant: Huh? What are you talking about, Son? Jack: That day at Heffron. Grant: Oh hell, Son, I was high that day. That doesn’t make any sense at all, you can be second, third, fourth… hell you can even be fifth. Jack: What? I’ve lived my whole life by that! 3rd A: Alex Nazarewicz Great to see you looking over your shoulder during the race. But who are you scared of? Here’s some advice for you. Say this to yourself every day: “Well, I’m the best there is. Plain and simple, when I wake up in the morning I piss excellence”. And don’t look back. 4th A: Michael Potter Much has been said about you. But not here. What’s the point? 5th A: Liam Kelly You and I sat down, what, 13-14 years ago. Back before “soy chai latte”and posting your current coffee/meal on social media. It was a Sunday morning and you’d completed a 200km ride
with about a dozen broken ribs. Nothing important. We discussed retirement, growing old and getting slow - something Naz needs to get a grip with. We concluded aside from me being THE KING, you needed to slow down. So what’s with 5th? Did you have like 5 laps out for punctures? 1st B: Adam McCoy Pissing in the long grass with the big dogs next time. 2rd B: Mark Rowling Good effort. Pretty lame comment I know but seriously, that was a pretty lame performance. You need to spend some time with THE KING. Credit cards accepted. 3rd B: Chris BALL Watching you is like watching the movie Highlander. THE greatest movie ever made. 1st C: Fabian Kegel Moving on up to B grade for you 2nd C & 1st Woman: Charlotte Culver I’m racking my brain for a Talladega Nights quote but everything I find is lets say ‘inappropriate’ 3rd C: Maickel Sweekhorst Rapha. Man you guys need to move over to my club. Christmas is right around the corner and your local Walmart outlet has closed. You cannot get any thing in pink though.
