so, it’s october already.  almost summer but the cold mornings are still with us for a bit longer.  it was only 4 degrees this morning, but the sun is getting up way early and it makes a nice difference to be riding in daylight before 6am.  at least there will be no damn daylight savings to banish me to the darkness again.

cyclo-sportif this sunday will see spr field 2 teams in the long distance event.  a total of 17 riders will be heading down so we should have good showing again.

there is a previous post about about a “come and try” day for disabled athletes.  if you are free on the 17th it would be a good opportunity for a few spr riders to head down after coffee to check it out.

the route for saturday will take us on some nice familiar roads.  we will split the group once we get to south street and hope the lights don’t bunch us up too much again as this causes a bit of confusion as to who is in which group.  the main group returns home via bannister and the fast group should get a good run along nicholson.

the kahuna plus three other climbs should see the non-cyclosportif sunday climbers well satisfied by the end of the day.
