15th of August 2010 Cam Jennings produces exceptional ride in tough conditions Hi all, Well I am writing this report after a successful Stage 5 of the 2010 GMHBA Tour of Geelong. After the disappointment of yesterday’s individual time trial I wanted to set things right, have a good day and move up on the overall classification for Team Budget Forklifts and myself.

14th of August 2010 Budget Forklifts primed for Queen stage at Anakie after TT at Portarlington Stage 4 of the Tour of Geelong was a 20km TT, starting and finishing in Portarlington. Fortunately, we woke to fairly good weather this morning, which was a great change of pace to the almost cyclonic conditions we had experienced in the previous stages! Matt Wood was to be the first to head off, closely followed by myself, then Blair Windsor, Pete Herzig, Glen Chadwick and finally Cam Jennings.

Glen Chadwick takes Sprint Jersey!

Well we were greeted with another wet and windy morning but all in good spirits to get back out there and fly the BFL flag. 60km around a 2km circuit. The flag was dropped, the gun fired and off the race went at a blistering pace. With bonus seconds up for grabs every second lap Drapac obviously want to get their team mate and race leader Rhys Pollack some extra time early

Cam Jennings the most aggressive rider during Stage 2

Hi all

Well it was another tough stage, primarily due to the wind, rain and cold conditions. For those that may know me, I have never performed the best in the rain and cold, and my performance in the criterium in the morning backed this up. I was useless in the morning, but was determined to have a good stage in the afternoon. In this stage last year I raced well and managed to sprint to 2nd on the stage.

Blair Windsor hits the podium at the Tour of Geelong!

Wet, windy and cold sum up the first stage of Tour of Geelong. The first day is usually the most nervous on tour and the weather conditions did not help. A 60km crit saw the start of the 2010 Tour of Geelong and we were all excited to pick up from where we started off after the successful Tour of Gippsland.
