Re: DHBC Racing the NRS

Mid race update from the convoy. Big crash about 25km in involving 30 something riders. Chris went down, no real major injuries but he did snap his bars in half, so his race is over.

Well done everyone regardless, the Dinnerville is always tough race.

Re: Heffron 4 May

It was certainly a challenging day out there in the windy. Only about half the A grade field finished, so I was happy to be there at the end. I was a little out of practise at the corners though.

Good to see all the other dhbc riders out there. It was a day for the bearded riders.

Ha. Even if they are the right size there is no way I can take them off you, they are worth about 10 times the bike that they would be installed on.

Put them on ebay, silly. :)

WTB - cheap 175mm road cranks

Hi All,

Looking for a set of cheap 175mm road cranks to use on a very old trainer bike. Doesnt really matter what brand or condition they are in, so long as they are newer than about 1990.

cheers,

Alex

Re: Ken Dinnerville - Entries open Tuesday 2nd of April 9am

No one needs to panic too much about their handicap, James F and I have already discussed them. Most people will be in the first couple of bunches and Chris will be near the back.

The front bunches often take the victory in this race, so everyone should be able to have a good crack at the win.

Re: Women's Road Series: March/April 2013

I disagree that heffron has 'dangerously' tight corners or that it should be redesigned. Criteriums are characteristed by their sharp corners and tight, close racing if you remove that you might as well just have a road race. Part of the skill of winning is the ability to corner correctly. I can thi...
