It appears only bad luck will stop Coastal cycling star Amy Cure claiming this year’s Criterium Cup after another dominant performance in Devonport on Friday evening.
With some help this time from Macey Stewart, the pair broke away with 13 of the 18 laps to go and steadily built an unassailable lead around the 1.3 kilometre course.
For the second time in as many races Cure caught the peloton with two laps to go, along with Stewart, but it was clear to see who had the better legs with Stewart still recovering from her fall at Ulverstone and gasping for air.
Cure powered away in the sprint home to win easily from Stewart, with South Australian Maeve Maroney-Plouffe a distant third, over a minute behind.
