CANBERRA, Australia (transcendmagazine.com) -- Mick Hannah is back from a year off of racing and has managed to secure the Australia National title against stiff competition for his first major win of 2009. The Mongoose team rider (soon to be GT) managed to smoke all comers.
Jared Graves who also took a year off, albeit to compete in the Olympics, is back racing the big bikes and slid into second place. Ben Cory and Amiel Cavalier somehow managed to tie for third place.
Thanks to Farkin.net for the results.
