sorry, been on the tools all day doing bathroom renovations. totally forgot about the ride routes, so i have slapped something together and it is probably full of spelling mistakes. i am really just stringing words together to make it look like i have written something insightful and to bulk out the blog enough to get the text past the picture on the left. with the tour on at night and early rides in the morning, something was eventually going to have to give.
ride leader sponsor – the ride leader sponsor for july is 45 Degrees North, a cycling/coaching/chalet/training facility based in morzine in france. more info can be found on the previous post.
rules of engagement – please read the previous post if you come out on any of our rides. it is up to all members to enforce these rules.
tour de france tipping – with half the tour completed, the teams of the sprinters are smashing ahead of the rest. however, with some serious mountains ahead, the gc riders have a chance to take in some serious coin. the sweepstakes leaderboard is already being updated, so you can see which teams are doing well.
spr quarterly breakfast – it’s a breakfast. it’s held quarterly. it is coming on the 30th july. see the previous post for more details.
tour of margs – expressions of interest have opened for this years tour of margaret river. we have secured 3 men’s and 3 women’s teams, so it should allow us to provide for a decent spread of abilities. check out the previous post and put your name down if you are interested.
bike swap meet – later this year perth will be hosting the pacific youth track cycling tournament. this event will actually cost quite a bit to hold and as such midland are organising a bike swap meet to raise funds. if you have any old bike parts that you think still have value, then you can register to sell them at this event. on to of this, it will be held at the velodrome while friday night track racing is one. buying bike stuff and watching bike racing. what more can you ask for. click on the flyer pic to the right for more details.
uwct training – the new uwct grand fondo course has been annouced and as such we will be running training rides on sunday. this will replace the normal long hills ride and will be a race pace ride for those that have qualified and those that just want a hard hit out. check out the previous post for more details.
spr road race champs – the club road champs has been updated after the second pickering brook race. if you have raced in any of the races listed, see how you are tracking in club points. the leaderboard can be found in the menu above or here.
ride routes – the weather is not looking that good this saturday, but there is a good chance that the morning will remain clear. heavy rain predicted for the afternoon, but only a chance in the morning. usually that means that it is dry everywhere except where we want to ride. will need to play it by ear in the morning, but hoping for the best.
