    Sam Clark will head into the race as one of the favourites alongside defending champion Hamish Elliott and Australia's Alex Hunt.

    Eliott says he's excited to square off against one of the best to have ever won the event.



    In the two-day individual Coast to Coast, Sam King leads the men's race after day one by about nine minutes ... Emily Trevail is well in front in the women's event, in front by about 16 minutes.
