A favourite race for many of us is the Midland Cycle Club Pickering Brook event. The race is held in the picturesque hills of Kalamunda. Consisting of a one lap individual time trial, followed later with a road race.

You place yourself in a grade that suites your ability. Distances vary for different grades, for more info about this aspect ask your friendly race committee: Jon Hanson, Steph Lim, Greg Murray, Paul George and Luke Dawson.

Many SPR riders have started their race careers in this event,  the course is a loop that has a combination of easy corners and long straights, with a small hill. Perfect for the all rounder.
