sorry, short on time and motivation to write something inspirational. lots of spr riders heading to lorne for this weekend’s amy’s grand fondo. good luck to all and hopefully you gain your qualifying spot to italy for next year’s worlds.
ride leader sponsor – the ride leader sponsor for september is My Petite Sweets. they specialise in cakes, cookies and deserts for all occasions. please see the previous post for more details.
kit order – the current spr kit order is closing on the 15th of sept. if you need kit then jump on board as we only do 3 orders a year and this should be here for tour of margs. see the previous post for further info.
the beverley – coming up on 14-15 october is spr’s hosted “the beverley road race”. in only it’s second year and as part of The element series we are running this awesome event again in the charming wheatbelt town of beverley. the beverley road race is a 116km handicap format race departing beverley township through rolling green rural fields, into national park bush land for the turnaround and predominantly downhill run home for the finish. entries and event page are here. as a part of the beverley heroic weekend, there is our road race on saturday, a retro bike show through the afternoon, cyclocross racing on saturday evening and the beverley heroic on sunday. there is pub accommodation, a caravan park and an event village in town for the weekend. Full details for the weekend are on the website. make a whole cycling weekend of it!
entertainment books – we are still selling the entertainment book/app as a fund raiser for the club. packed full of offers, it will not take you long to redeem back what you paid. check out the previous post for more details and links to registration.

hursday training ride – we implemented a new system of splitting the thursday group ride to keep the size manageable. we think that we have come up with a good way of splitting the groups, but we need you to be honest about your own abilities. have a look at the strava segment for the ride so you know where you sit. there is nothing to stop you stepping up to challenge yourself, but this will at least provide a guide as to how much more challenging it will be.
saturday start locations – we have revamped the group start locations on saturday morning. please have a look at the map so you know where your group will congregate. this makes it easier for ride leaders to give you a briefing before the ride starts. see the previous post for more details.
