Ride Routes 17th – 23rd December

So the votes are in, and we have some awards to announce on Saturday.

Each year SPR recognises riders and volunteers for their achievements and contributions to all things cycling. This year is no different and I look forward sharing them with you.

And hopefully you all have been busy prepping for the our Annual Christmas Ride. You are ready right? Tinsel? Christmas jersey ready? Extra credit if the aerodynamics are poor but you sacrifice them for cause… just this once… there will be a prize for best dressed.

Join us at DOME after the ride for breakfast, coffee and the award presentations.

See you Saturday 🎄🎅

Life Cycle for Canteen 2023 — The Canteen ride if on again next year, running 11-13 March 2023. The ride from Bassendean to Busselton over 2.5 days is inclusive of all cyclists and ranges from 300km to 400km with or without hills. There are five levels all supported with vehicles front and back. Registration costs $340 per person and includes all meals, camp site or indoor spot to roll out a swag, transfer of gear and luggage each day and transport back to Perth. So you start and finish in Perth… simple! 

There is a minimum fundraising of $200 per person/couple that all goes to support young people 12 -25 impacted by cancer; it is a totally volunteer not-for-profit charity. Why not join the SPR Mixed team of 11 riders – the organisation is superb.

Details are on General Info and Registration OnRoad – Life Cycle for Canteen WA (lifecyclewa.com). Also have a read of the write-up from Team SPR at the Canteen 2022 Edition.

For more information contact Carol if you are interested comdev@southperthrouleurs.com.au; we have limited hotel accommodation as an option to camping.

From the Ride Coordinator — It’s SPR Xmas breakfast and fancy dress time for bikes and riders – the one weekend my partner wishes she was a cyclist! To get everyone back to the DOME and ready for breakfast & prize giving within a shorter space of time, we will have two different Main routes on Saturday.

As we did last year, After M1.1 group leaves on Route A, M2.1 group will head out on Route B, and we alternate from there on.

Note:

  • Main 2, 3 and 4 should prepare for a slightly earlier departure than normal.
  • M1.4 becomes a no-drop ride as they are last group on route A.

Departure order is:
Fast – Route A
Fast2 – Route A
M1.1 – Route A
M2.1 – Route B
M1.2 – Route A
M2.2 – Route B
M1.3 – Route A
