What a race! From Rude's massive comeback after a mechanical, Hill taking the number 2 spot on flats, Tracy Moseley's incredible return to racing and Greg Callaghan's repeat win, there was no shortage of stoke during round 3 of the EWS.
After last year’s amazing event, everyone was looking forward to returning and it didn’t disappoint. The crowds were even bigger and miraculously the sun was also out once again. Last year we saw local hero Greg Callaghan take the win, the swarming excitable crowds all clearly wanted a repeat. With Tracy Moseley also back for a recess from her retirement, it was always going to be an exciting race to see if these two riders, the crowd and the venue could repeat last years magic. We certainly weren’t disappointed. It was drama at every turn.
