we are coming to the end of march but don’t seem to be coming to the end of summer. can’t really complain as most of our riding is in the morning which has been quite pleasant lately. the garden could do with a drink, but at least we are not being held up by rain like the rest of the country. however, don’t look at the weather report to work out whether you will ride, look at the weather report to work out what you will wear while riding.
kit distribution – there are not that many kits left to pick up so i will not bother to bring them to the coffee shop on saturday. please send me an email and arrange a pick-up time.
state crit champs – this weekend we are running the state crit champs with the rccc. if you are not racing, please come down to help out as we need volunteers to get this event to run properly. this is more than just a club crit, this is a state championship so we need to make a good impression. please come on down, see more info here.
mtb series – there is also the first round of the mountain bike cross country on this weekend. if you are looking at getting a bit dirty and want to give the fat tyres a spin head on down. more info here.
spr/rccc crit series – the following weekend we will finish off the spr/rccc crit series. come down for your last chance to race this circuit for the year. we need volunteers for this one too.
easter camp – this is coming up soon. click on the link on the right sidebar for more info and register your interest in the comments.
ride routes – on sunday, the short course will follow the long up kalamunda hill. from there they can head down the zig-zag and up gooseberry for a second climb, or just head straight for coffee. the biggest challenge is for the long course to not stop for coffee before they do the last climb up gooseberry.

Another fab Fri morn ride this morning. Someone had obviously been out on a bit of a recruitment drive; it was brill having a decent mob to share the load; Gotta luv it ;0)
Lennie, you ride on Fridays as well now??
Geez, what is the world coming too..?? All this cycling..
The very very casual SPR Thursday night at the pub thing I’ve started up is planning a dinner night at Sato’s place.
I’ve got a carton of beers to get rid of, so the beers are no problem.
Sato, how about 7th April ? Should be able to get a fair few people to come
Always welcome, Andrew.
Just tell me what time, Ill try to put a sign
“reserved by SPR”, if I can.
Today Shun and Sylvia came to see me.
Im really happy to see you guys at my place.
Should I bring my roller to back of the kitchen???
I blame Lennie – the *recovery* Friday wasn’t as it should be!
Good luck with the new business, Sato. Will miss your company on the Hills rides so hopefully you can get some Sunday staff soon.
Thank you Mr. Bonner. Ill miss your back for sure.
Stalking for long time. Once settle down, I might have time,
but far off back from everybody….
Writing this week off. Not good with the crit next weekend. Behaved this week but felt shit on the bike this week. May miss the hills tomorrow have a wedding to get ready for now. But will be on the bike all week. Shaw you won’t get left alone this week. Your doing C grade with me next Sunday.
I’ll come visit you for sure sato, best of luck to you. Maybe I can have a shot at getting some points in the hills now!
thanks john.
we’re from hilly country, we should smash them;)
Good luck Sato…
I wondered why Nippon food was not tasting so good these days…
p.s. I do not have a big tool.. Don’t know who is changing my post and giving me false publicity..
Twas a private joke but I guess could come across as slightly more cheeky than usual..
