Brian Bellicanta won race 1 of the long course Tour de Hill and won the right to wear the yellow cap, but it didn't happen as Bellicanta was missing from the Hill this week.
Not so for the short course, Christian Callcut swapped his black cap for the yellow cap but running without a shoe tag means it will be a one-off privilege.
In the long course Adrian Baird did one better than last week being the first across the line. Tom Mackerras was 2nd followed by Georgia Grimmond, then Tania Moore both of whom week-by-week show improving form.
Jessica Dalton made the debut in the long course and finished 8th. Derek Goullet posted the fastest time for the 6km course.
Baird has accumulated 75 points and leads the long course surfer competition 26 points ahead of 2nd placed Ashley Pianca.
Baird will wear the yellow cap next week and should continue to do so until the handicapper decides enough is enough.
In the short course Thomas Callcut was first to cross the line, then came Connor Moore followed by the fastest short course runner Nate Mingay.
