Nine junior riders competed in four events at Heffron Park on Saturday 28 February 2004. Thirteen-year-old Tom Patton was fastest in the 2km Time Trial clocking a time of 3min 23sec. Taylor Weetman won the 2km Handicap race and Sam Buckland won the 4km scratch race.

In the senior races, ‘The Machine’ Peter McDonald, riding a Cheeky Monkey Multisport Randwick - red Cannondale with deep rim black Mavic wheels, rode solo for most of the 36km A-Grade race, easily winning in a time of 55min 6min at an average speed of nearly 40kmh. The King of Heffron Park – Anthony Spurgeon from Team Caravello was a distant second with Jersy Sowa along side him. Frank Fortuna won the bunch sprint in B-Grade.

After winning D-Grade last week, Joshua Marden was promoted to C-Grade this week and won that race too. Marden put the hammer down at the start of the straight and the other strong C-Graders couldn’t match Marden’s explosive acceleration. Arthur Driver (Penrith Panthers) was second followed by Andrew Hall and Tony Caruana.

Andrew Swan had another strong ride in D-Grade, winning in a time of 35min 40sec. Second place went to Grant Chellew (Sydney) followed by Anthony Morehouse, Paul Newbold and Chris Reynolds.

Young Matthew Fortuna scored another place in the 14km E-Grade. Other placegetters included Alberto Bracco (Waratah Veterans) and Joe Gatt.
