Dave - close 2nd in Archer Spring RR

No bad luck this week for Dave ( apart from a photo finish decision that went against him) - and a superb 2nd place in the Archer Spring RR.

Dave's report ..
It was a good race. First time up whiteleaf we lost about half the bunch, 2nd time there were only 14 of us and that’s how it stayed until about a mile to go when 3 guys manage to clip off. I didn’t want to chase them as I was being watched. Luckily Andy Betts went after them so I jumped on his wheel and went for it down the finishing straight I was flat out as the leaders were tiring, unfortunately the line needed to be a few inches further away. We couldn’t call it until they looked at the photographic evidence and Cameron had just got it.
