RunSub Cracking race on this fairly twisty circuit. After the fast group start I followed Rick once he pushed to the front, till at the top small but sharp climb his navigation error left me ahead and in front by a few yards. Held 1st for about 1.5km before Steve came past, which given that his lights were so bright that my own shadow was hiding the route meant I could finally see ground again. He push ahead getting 15 yards gap while Rick as 10 yards behind me, By the time we had reached the far corner for the 2nd time and we about 1.5km to go all three of us were back together. Pushed hard to lead again over the final bridge crossing we stayed grouped until the final left hand to onto the finish straight. Steve accelerating for the final 400m and kicked with 120m to go to just get a few seconds lead and take the win. 
2nd and a new PB .
