George Hayes has won Counties Manukau Cycling’s Bruce Kent Memorial race held at Aka Aka on Saturday.

Hayes won the race from the 9:09 start group, the group working well to defy the odds after the handicapping proved to be on the money.

He was presented the trophy by members of the Kent family.

Mike Lichtwark set the fastest time of the day with a time of 2hrs 19mins and 6s.
