2007 Rodney Rabbit Ride results

Peter gets the Rabbit!

Peter Latham showed again why he is one of New Zealands most talented and classy riders in winning the 83k Rodney Rabbit Ride cycle challenge in 2hrs.04m on sunday. Breaking away from a 200+ strong field and taking the first $100 prime on the climb up Sunnyside rd from karl Murray and Justin Kerr, this trio was soon to be joined by Aaron Strong and Tom David and would carve out a 40 second lead by the time they reached kahikatea rd from the very talented chase group driven by North shore Grand prix winner Josh England, Mike Northey, Richard Speer, Bradley Aldrich, Silas Cullen, Sam Weston and others.

Latham took the second prime from Justin kerr and Aaron Strong and this group of five strong leaders continued to stretch the lead on Peak rd to a 2 minute lead by the finish with Peter Latham winning the sprint (and final $100 prime) from Justin Kerr, Karl Murray, Aaron Strong and Tom David.

Angela McNaughton won the womens 83k event in dominating fashion and like Peter Latham won the lion share of all the primes ($300) from Katrina Smithson and Vikki Burr. Jonathon Gear won the mens 72k event with Nicki Harvey winning the womens. Greg Miller and Emma Weston were the winners in the 31k event.

$10000 in prizes were handed out on the day, special thanks to the sponsors [Genius Bikes] [Castelli] [Timex] [Hammer gel] [Vitality centre] [Allpress espresso] [USN] [DulX] [Bike Albany] [Millennium Institute] and [Blasted promotions]

Special thanks also to our volunteers, staff and the powers that be (Rodney district council, Works and Transit New Zealand) for approving the course changes in record time. Special thanks to the riders for supporting this event and in kind supporting the Auckland Child Cancer house.

Karl Murray leads the Elite triple crown after this first event from Aaron Strong (as both Justin kerr and Peter latham are off to Europe soon). We wish them well on there racing season.

Event 2 in the series is the Waitakere City Tour of the Wild Wild West cycle challenge from Titirangi to Muriwai (80k/53k/20k) on March 4th. Entries close on Feb 25th .
