Hi Laurensia
I have put my hand up to be on team1 with Michelle & Amanda.
But I need to get the all clear with my broken hand which is still in a cast. I will message you in a week or two with results from hand surgeon
Lorna -
Yes I’m interested. Either A or B distance, depending where the numbers are needed
-
I’m in and with Vanessa’s team.
-
-
Count me in. Longer distance pls.
-
I’m keen, longer distance please👍
-
I’m in for the Main 2 speed & distance with Tania. Cheers
-
Noting this CRAZY course Laurensia, I reserve my judgment & application until BWA come up with a course that is sound for all abilities & sealed
-
-
Check out the course as currently advertised at https://cyclemycity.com/index.php?option=com_maps&view=routeDetails&mid=858&Itemid=248
The circuit goes up Hardwick Rd up to Weir Rd (also known as the Haddrill Rd climb). Most of the climb is at over 10% gradient with the Weir Rd section mostly over 15%, hitting 20% near the top. (A brave move by Bicycling WA; be good to have a club race up there).
Having thought about that… 3 laps – I’m in. -
I am keen to go, A (preferred) or B distance.
-
I am keen, A distance please
-
I believe there is a fault with the map as published by BWA – Hardwick Road does not go through to Weir Road and up the hill to the monster Haddrill Rd climb – it is a dead end. (In case you have downloaded it)
I tried riding the course today as per the BWA map and had to backtrack to Campersic Rd and then Haddrill Rd. I will contact BWA to clarify it during the week.
I only just made it up the hill on a 39/28 (including the odd zig-zag) – Strava shows it gets to 23%.-
Looking at your route from yesterday Bill you missed the best part.
-
I know the bit you mean Craig – I could see it from my high vantage point and I wasn’t going there only for it to end in tears (mine). It was a ‘road to nowhere’….. (and I didn’t want to spend all day cleaning my bike).
-
-
I have contacted Jeremy Murray – CEO of BWA regarding the course errors. They have promised to make corrections and update the published courses in the near future.
-
-
I am interested.
A or B
Not with fast chicks.
Up the hill we go 👍 -
I’m keen for either A or B distance to make up a M2-paced team
-
Main 2 B Flat for Rebecca Kelly, who is suffering password issues….. 😉
Greg is still out. 🙁 -
I’m in, and the SPR Chocolat Canard rides again. We’re currently debating whether it’s the Flat or Hilly course that we’re doing.
-
The hilly looks like a fun course. Cyclo-sportif riders usually fall off on the flat course, will be great fun having them hurtling down the Campersic Rd descent.
