Paul Richardson (Bournemouth Arrow/Hotel Collingwood) won the penultimate round in the Moreton evening series, his first win in his first ever road race. Richardson benefited from some generous handicapping; the 7 minutes given to the yellow group never looked under threat from a lack-lustre scratch group. Jordan Wade (VC ST Raphael) came down after a touch of wheels, taking some speed out of a chase that would prove fruitless. A regular on the nearby Bournemouth Track, Richardson showed a good turn of speed, opening up his sprint at 100 metres he comfortably held off the challenge of Shaun Amor (UK-BIKING). “My legs fell off” joked Amor. Jay Eastwood (Primera/Specialized) led the scratch group in, taking the sprint for 8th place still a minute down. With just one round remaining Eastwood has secured the overall series win for the third consecutive year.
