this weekend the fleet elite girls are racing the geelong tour as a part of the australian national road series.
the race has been a big focus for anna, bec and holly with the past few months training having a heavy focus on friday’s 28km time trial. davina (just returned from racing overseas) and lisa will be supporting the WA girls in the criterium (saturday) and 94km road race (sunday).
their progress can be followed at their facebook site here.
cyclo-sportif have an event next weekend. it is close to home again so if you are interested, find the previous post and add your name to the comments. teams need to be registered by tuesday so we need all names in by monday night.
the rest of the cycle kit has arrived so i will be doing a coffee shop run on saturday morning.
this week we will be doing a nice relaxing lap of the river. the group will split at point walter with the fast group heading up stock rd hill and along to south st before heading back up to freo. a tour through cott and home through dalkeith to finish off. the main group will do the usual river lap and include cott as well.
sunday will tackle the kahuna and roleystone before a lap of the observatory and up to kalamunda. skipping the coffee at kalamunda last week kind of worked and i think that it will depend on what time we get there. this sunday’s route isn’t quite as long and if we make good time we may be early enough to beat the brunch rush. i think that we will play it by ear. it was suggested that if we do head back to perth for coffee that we should look at a place in vic park as most of the group would still be together, but not far from home if you need to make and early exit. we will see what happens.
Cyclo-Sportif ,
I will give this one a miss,I have had the Flu and have not been on the bike for two weeks. Not enough riding for this one. I was so looking foreward to the big one! Maybe next time.
