The Bendigo track is big- over 400m- and odd shaped. The track is a big D, with a single straight and an endless bend. Throw in the gusting wind and we were in for a fun night of racing!
Fellow Canberran, and more notably Australian track team member, Danny Ellis was there to dominate the men's A grade racing. At least while the racing was less than 10 laps!
Of course it wouldn't be a Christmas carnival without random running events in the centre. Although that has nothing on the wood chopping that happens at the Tassie carnivals!
It was also nice to catch up with my brother and his family. As for my racing, it wasn't too bad, just lacking a little spark. There's still 2 days to go, so no need to panic.
Thoughts are with the guys who came down in the heat for the 2km wheel, and their bikes which have seen their last rides. Ride safe everyone.

Looks like Bendigo would make a good place for a Duathlon!
