Thrills and spills

More than 9000 people watched the many thrills and spills as riders battled it out at Clyde on 29 January.
Organiser Shawn Mathrick said he was delighted with the success of the event, and once again was impressed with the behaviour of the crowd.
“They are the most well behaved people. The event attracts the nicest people,” he said.
Mr Mathrick said the Cranbourne Rodeo attracted the biggest crowd in Australia for a single-day rodeo event.
Riders compete for points towards the Australian title, and winners at Cranbourne go on to compete at the Melbourne International Rodeo at Rod Laver Arena in November.
