I learnt what a paceline is/was/action from Geoff and Eric heading down the same stretch, in fact I got heaps of pointers from Eric - good one guys.

(Geoff has a french term for paceline, it sounded a bit fruity)

I think that guy was a Cronulla rider? he was very helpful/productive

micklan

But if we change the design, half the club will have the old and half the new and we will look like cr*p on the road. Keep the design, I say. :wink: At Heffron its hard to tell who is RBCC due to all the different jersey designs - then you realize we are the only red ones - ipso facto all the other...

I like the sound of Bathurst ride - if I have no other engagements I'll ride it and maybe drive up on sat in ute

micklan

I've a body torque (made in australia) jersey - no website address on it, whatever run that was. It's the best jersey I've had, if perhaps a tad too big. Has only started to fade lightly. Go for quality...

Is there a need to avoid sponsor on jersey, but have on butt?

micklan

ABC news had footage of Huw winning the race.
Also Christian & Tbone were on the TV - it's a national race

How did that last 9km compare with RNP hills? its hard to say, after a coffee, 2 schooners, a 600 ml lift and x 3 sausage sandwichs from the Lions Club - - I'd say longer. but not as steep as say Audley in.

it was the 9k back to the train station :roll: Jambaroo Fun Park (JFP) uses the downhill gravity factor of the the rolling hills to Albion Park railway station to power it's water rides - and due to same, (and some emiprical data via speed cameras), the water rides at JFP are regarded as the fastes...

Dear all, Due to the lack of numbers in E and F grade, E and F grade races have been cancelled. A,B,C and D grade now start at 4pm whilst daylight savings is on.

what a ripper

micklan

No you don't actually - you'll note that your little blue card has the start stamp already on it.

Noted

micklan

I would suggest we'd leave straight from the car park as IMO there's no use doing walking loop paste the official start line -

Stuart you need to get a little check point stamp on your little start ticket?

micklan

Very close race there

micklan

I've registered.
Ross is a very good rider in M3. How are races run, via divisions?
Mike you can get a ride with me if you wish.

I tried a few helmets at City Bike depot today - they had this front of helmet backward tilt to varying degrees.

I hit the wall once, (thats zero energy from some jet lag), and had to rely on coach Jo (mit Stuart), to lead back...all the way from Waterfall

James I saw you too, but your jersey has faded, but we did notice.

micklan

To get photos done and get away in the first group, 6-6:15 is about right actually.

Just received message that she came third in women's sprint.

does that compute ? - there must be a lot of depth in Chinese female track. She cleaned up at RAW...I would think she'd win the lot

micklan

It will be quite a while till RAW returns.

this is going to be a long thread by next year

Ahh, Jinjie. She won a set of skins for beating each and every one of those male riders !

Had a stack on friday at RAW - not my fault. At the start, in fact only half lap completed of the Div 3 Madi-lead, about three bikes up a clipped wheel or two, they fell up the track I went down the track to the concrete, lest I run the other guys over. Helmet worked well. Need a few repairs on bike...

No good mate

Man i may be out for this week, though not sure yet. I stacked it on a bmx while on a camp on the weekend, my shoulder is a bit gone, and i dont know how bad it is yet, had to get my motor bike ridden home for me.
