Jun 6, 2010 [Jeremy Lyons] Brian Gregan has a good win in France yesterday. The race took place in Valbonne in the south of France and Gregan clocked 46.65 to beat the British athlete Graham Hedman into second. Very promising with much of the season to come and it further lowers his own club record.
