Will be interesting to see if McCarthy can get a better win in 2018 - Has enough ability and usually gets a few chances at Bora-Hansgrove.

I hope so, he seems like a nice enough guy. Problem is when he races back here, all the strongest NRS guys and ex Drapac riders like Kerby, Rudolph and Jack Anderson keep attacking until there’s a group without McCarthy. It makes our regular Saturday morning crits very fast.yaco said:Will be interesting to see if McCarthy can get a better win in 2018 - Has enough ability and usually gets a few chances at Bora-Hansgrove.

Is Hepburn riding in any of the Crits ? Would like Hepburn to ride the TDF in 2018 - He's a reliable rider whose done his apprenticeship at the Giro and of course in now solely focused on the road.
Not too often though. Perth has SFA racing so every bunchie is just a hammerfest. Everyone goes berserk so it’s not always conducive to early season training.Captain Serious said:Durbridge apparently destroys some of the group rides in Perth over Summer.
