Mal Sawford has forwarded the terrible news that CCCC legend and handicapper without equal Lorraine Collings died on Sunday.

Lorraine was CCCC's handicapper and known to just about everyone who races bicycles in Victoria and around the country.   I remember her well, and very fondly.  She knew everyone, and could spot a sandbagger at 100 paces.

One of my proudest moments in cycling as a competitor was being told by her I had to move up a grade.  I was lucky, she had to tell me twice.

Lorraine, you'll be much missed by all of us.
