West Pine cyclist Amy Cure celebrated her 26th birthday in style, taking out the Women’s Burnie Criterium for the first time and completing her Criterium Cup and Sprint Cup clean sweep.

Her third victory of the series was claimed with a sprint finish from Macey Stewart in second and Anya Louw in third, after the trio lapped the field during the final lap.

The second place finish of Stewart was enough to secure third place in the Criterium Cup, behind second place overall Maeve Plouffe.

Cure said winning the Burnie Criterium had some added emotion, given it was her birthday.
