Metropolitan Championships @ Penrith Lakes @ 6 July - M4 category and Davide van der Browne probably had a day he’d prefer to forget. A heavy night at RAW Track the night before weighed on poor Davide on the Saturday morning. Davide subsequently gave his front wheel to BiciSport team mate Graham Cockerton who had punctured and Cockertone repaid the kind gesture and rejoined the peloton to contest the sprint finish. A thoroughly nice unselfish act by Davide. Davide rides traditional 42 width Cinelli Criterium handelbars (very rounded and in the Roger De Vlaeminck style from the 1970’s) … yes, 42 is THE answer
