[ Ran out of time to find and post photos for the State Champs run last week … will update over the weekend ]
Quick update today featuring some photos from the SPR French Alps 2024 trip. I have it on good authority there has been some serious climbing involving, including Col de la Joux Verte, Col des Gets, Col de la Colombiere and Col de la Croix Fry.
Hopefully some dry riding this weekend, and a racing opportunity with Midland Cycle Club.
See you out on the bike.

1. MCC Pickering Brook Road Race
2. X-Speed Junior Road Racing Rally (28/Sep)
Juniors Ride — The junior training session is resuming this Saturday starting from Shelley. We will be riding a loop around the suburbs of Shelley, Manning, Salter Point and Rossmoyne. Here is the course: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/304879184 (~20km). We will meet here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/jhK5dnUrkjt64kMd7 at 11am.
There is another opportunity for racing on Sunday in Pickering Brook. The event is open to U11 and U13. Check out more details here: https://entryboss.cc/races/21121
From the Ride Coordinator — It’s the start of the month so it is “Step Up Saturday!”
Take this opportunity to see where your riding is at and STEP UP and have a go at riding with that next group above your usual Saturday ride.
Red lights mean STOP. If it’s amber and you’re near the front of the group, call STOPPING so the group slows and stops safely. If some go through, call SPLIT, so the front riders can ease up and wait. We don’t want anyone to feel pressured into shooting a red light.
Please note, the development group currently runs 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month.
IMPORTANT: We have changed the start time of our Sunday Hills rides back to our winter time of 7am. Take note 🥶
