Just as a FYI for all that SUVelo will be racing again on 17th June (3rd Sunday of Month).

I'll be heading over weather permitting leaving from Marrickville Rd Cafe @ 6.15am for 7am sign on. Format as follows:

7.30am
C Grade Men 45 minutes + 1 bell lap
D Grade Men 40 minutes + 1 bell lap
B Grade Women 40 minutes + 1 bell lap

8.30am
A Grade Men 55 minutes + 1 bell lap
B Grade Men 50 minutes + 1 bell lap
A Grade Women 45 minutes + 1 bell lap

Not sure if anyone went last month but there should be a decent turnout. It will be great to see some more red jerseys!!

Yes - I'm going to this and I'll be racing women's B Grade.

5 or 6 of us went last month but it got rained out, as we found out when we arrived.

Yes, but in comparison to something else?

A is fastest
B is old and fast, young whipper snappers, and people who just don't train enough
C is medium
and D is slow-ish-er maybe

Mike, I would say its comparable to Saturday Heffron although maybe a slightly smaller field. You should be in B grade; C grade if you want to burgle and/or lead me out ;-)

You finish the Dinnerville yet you want to go in D grade?

The grading is similar to the RBCC racing on Saturday, yet they dont force newcomers to race C grade. So they should let you in. I'm sure someone will recognise you though.

SU Velo have just announced that racing tomorrow is cancelled as the track is under water. :-(

I guess it's Waterfall or a sleep in. :-(
