NDCC Criterium Sunday 17th January

SPR had a fantastic turnout last weekend at the crit in Wangara. All up we had about 15 SPR riders out there flying the club colours. There is another crit being held this Sunday – it would be great to see a similar turnout this weekend. Might seem like a lot of racing, and I’m sure there will be some of you who would prefer the long ride over the hills, but keep in mind Pete’s last post and the importance of supporting these local events.  Further more next Sunday is forecast to be a really hot day so a short blast in the morning might be a better option anyway!

Plus it would be awesome to see SPR repeat last weeks success!

So for those of us who aren’t jetting over to the see the start of the TDU here are the details:

NDCC Criterium

Location: WA Newspapers, Hasler Road, Herdsman

Map

Cost: Noms are $15, day license is $33 if required.

Time : A – 8:00; B & C – 8:45 (maybe earlier)

Its a longer course compared to last week and looks a bit flatter too.  If it looks like we have enough numbers I can take the tent out for some shade.

See you there!

  1. Just after I finished B grade and was standing at the start waiting for C & A to begin, and couple of guys commented to me that it was great to see SPR with a good number of riders in C grade. Other clubs are noticing and as Toby said we need to support the other clubs too. NDCC do organise a good event.

  2. I’ll be there- I can go and get the SPR tent from Julian if you guys want- if there is going to be a few of us that is…???

  3. I’ll be there again trying to stick in with B !!! The course is flat but some of the corners are a little more hairier – Also there can be a huge head wind on the front straight which means on the back straight it all kicks off and no-one sees!!!!!

    see you there 😉

  4. C-grade is starting at 8:45 – but as the course is bigger and its going to be hot NDCC said they might get C-grade rolling earlier.

  5. How old are they?
    I have volunteered to keep am eye on Paul’s kids on the day so will gladly extend my services…

  6. Jason – you are on shade duty. I can help get it erect.

    Lorraine – can you bring some refreshments?

  7. Toby / Lorraine – ive got heaps of refreshments from last week so ill bring them along this week
    ill be there one way or another,racing or watching with the kids, if you dont mind Lorraine ill take you up on tht offer, but ill see how there going on the day

  8. That’s cool Josh… just play it by ear.
    I won’t buy any more drinks if you’re sure you have enough.

  9. Once again we are crying out for jerseys. If you have a spare club jersey and are coming to tomorrows crit please bring it along. Cheers!
