Re: Excursion to RNP and beyond - Sunday 16th February @ 5am
I've edited the Subject to reflect the new start time of 5am. For those fence sitting, the proposed route is Marrickville>Audley>Stanwell Tops>The Wall>Helensburgh>Marrickville I did something to that effect here: http://www.strava.com/activities/47585057 It does miss out the Wall though.... :D

Kurnell - Saturday 10th August - 5.30am
Hi All,
I'm going for a ride early tomorrow to Kurnell leaving @ 5.30am from MRC. Pace will be Middies, and no quicker as legs need to remain fresh for Sunday Kurrajong Classic. Drop your name below and I'll wait for you.
Cheers,
Noel

Re: how to get into track riding
I'm going to come down to the track tonight to try it out (2nd time on any velodrome). Anything specific to bring other than pedals? And what is the best time to get there to ensure enough time to setup bike?

Yeah thanks for the ride to Waterfall guys - couldn't have done it without you. Sorry that no one came with me to Stanwell Tops. You all missed out on something really special. I've never seen whales and dolphins somersaulting in unison - truly amazing. Next time, make the effort :) Well you missed...

Re: RBCC Heffron - Saturday 3rd August @ 3pm
John,
All RBCC Grades start @3pm. You can pick your grade but default is C Grade normally which they will insist on putting you. I'm sure your fitness would be ok for B Grade but perhaps good to get used to cornering, etc when not right on the limit.

Re: Club kit order Winter 2013
Hey Christian,
Do we have any race cut jerseys in stock at the track? I'd like to try one out as I've shrunk out of my medium club fit one. I'd say a Medium should do me in race cut.
Cheers,
Noel
