Time Trialling is the race of truth where one races against themselves, a challenge of your strength and endurance.
For 2015 I'm planning to find out what Time Trails are available for our participation and post them here
ATTA - first Sunday of each month

MCCC - May and August
Macarthur Collegians Cycling Club (MCCC) run a time trail once a year at Stevies Forest Road, Oakdale, not too far from Campbelltown. MCCC also run a Hill Climb up Old Razorback Rd, Cawdor which is also a time trial.

I'm on the lookout for any others that may be out there, though I think that's about it within Sydney commuting distance
Nice work Mike!
Perhaps you should pencil in a new date for the DHBC TT from Dec. June or July would be good as that's slap in the middle of the season, just after the State Titles (masters) and just before the TTT.
BTW happy New Year!

Both June and July is clear of any events on both the NSW and Aust calendars, though June is the day after the Sydney Road Titles

Despite CNSW showing 3 days for the NSW masters champs 23rd - 25th May 2015 the info that has come my way shows NSW masters champs being 2 days 23rd and 24th May 2015 and the same info confirms the masters ITT to be running with the elite and U19 ones 26th & 27th Sept. The location is still unknown.

Mike, from cycling nsw website: nsw masters to be held in griffith
The other ITT mentioned in sept would be the masters "invitational" run alongside the elite ITT champs in breadalbane I reckon. What is confusing is which one is the state champs ITT medals due to the naming of both events.

I went to Calga in Jan and PB'ed despite the fact I had a mechanical up blood hill. So definitely going again in Feb and I'll PB it again easy.
Also found these: http://www.bathurstcyclingclub.com.au/i ... /site/road
They have club ITT's starting in Feb
These are some ones based in VIC and SA:

Also how local do you want some ITTs Michael? What's the chances of our club running one? could just use the kurnell strip since that has been done before.

Good finds Jonathan
Looks like Bathurst has just the one on the 9th Feb http://www.bathurstcyclingclub.com.au/i ... r_planning
That time trial calendar for Vic and SA is awesome, wish there was one for NSW, its pretty much what I was hoping this thread would be.
There's a lot of work involved in organising our own time trial, there would need to be a lot of interest before I proposed it to the committee

That's the way it goes sometimes Jonathon, sometimes the bod needs a rest.
On another note the Track team pursuit 150+ team has fallen apart, so I'm available for any other team be that 150+ or sub 150

Calga is on again tomorrow. Its on regardless of weather, which doesn't look the best at the moment.
Remember heading indoors isn't always the best option...

There was a communication that confused a few and they have since put out a clearer communication. Entries are allowed on the day, if you want to reserve a time slot, you need to pre-enter.
There are 18 pre-entries for tomorrow. Somehow I suspect there won't be a huge queue tomorrow.

Looking at the calendar I've realised that the best date to run the DHBC championship is Sunday 3rd May.
Its a little short notice so I'm seeking your feedback
BTW I'm in China so appologies if I'm a little slow responding

I'm having second thoughts about tomorrow. A sleep in an indoor session is looking more likely than an early start and dealing with dirty rough roads!

Calga is on again this Sunday and with the NSW TTT champs and the DHBC ITT champs in July, you should consider heading out.
Also with the DHBC ITT champs, there's 2 completions based on the 25k route;
1. Age/Gender based handicap
2. Handicap compared to you PB
So if you haven't previously completed a 25k ITT (note 25k) at Calga, then you've halved your chance of victory and won't enjoy the cuisine at Pie N the sky afterwards
For those wanting to do it as solo training for the TTT you will probably find that the 25k course solo is around the same intensity as 40k in a team, another reason to go for 25k. But if your super keen on 43k, its a great course too
Anyone in need of a lift, I suggest posting here as most of the regulars follow this thread

If anyone wants a lift tomorrow morning to Calga, I can take one person
BTW you don't need a gold license, silver (ride it) is OK for time trialling at Calga

Calga is on again this Sunday. This is the last one before the Team Time Trail Championships
If you are in a team, then this is a great chance for a 43k team practice. If your in a team but the team isn't going, then I suggest you go for an individual effort, I suggest 25k so to simulate an approximation of team 40k effort.
Also the club individual championships is been tentatively set for first Sunday September, its a handicap championships. I'll set up its own thread once the date is confirmed.
BTW for Calga you do not need a Gold race license, the Silver ride-it license is all you need. Time trailing is the safest racing you can do, Calga has an almost perfect record over the 20 odd years it has been there, its a great place to get yourself started.
And if you need a lift out there, drop a post here, one of the regulars is bound to be able to accommodate you.

Jonathon has made an interesting discovery, there's time trailing at Kurnell on Saturday mornings, run by Cronulla tri club
http://www.cronullatriclub.com.au/Event ... esults.htm
http://www.cronullatriclub.com.au/Event ... esults.htm
Oh, I've emailed the people who run it, it's only once a month and it's in Winter only.
The website says it's mandatory for "Triathlon NSW" licence, but asked about CNSW and they said as long as there is some form of insurance it's fine.
Will update upon any new discoveries.
