drew eats it!
B-Grade's race today. Coppock, fresh from competing in Western Australia, made his intentions clear when he pressured the 32 riders in the bunch straight out of the box, causing quite a few riders to be unceremoniously dropped in the early stages of the race. Coppock, who has spent the last 12 months focussing on the ironman triathlons in preparation for the upcoming New Zealand rounds, then attacked again and was out on his own for quite a while, which was dangerous enough, but once he was joined by the powerhouse that is big Darren Henneken and the wily and experienced Phil Tehan and Drew MacDonald, the peloton did its level best to work hard and bring the� break back; but with two experienced time triallers in Coppock and Henneken riding at a tempo that no-one could match, it was 'game over' for the chasers. Towards the end of the race, MacDonald drifted back to the peloton, and in the mad rush into the final straight he and another rider crashed and both fell heavily; riders dodging left and right in an effort not to join the fallen. In the end, Coppock easily took the win, well clear of the valiant Tehan and Henneken, taking the strongest of possible wins.
