Great write up Laurensia! It was wonderful having a second SPR womens team out there. Your help on the last day was GREATLY appreciated!
-
I second what Megs has written. You girls really held your own and to see your strengths over the months was fantastic, Very inspiring.
-
Thanks for your kind words Laurensia! It was a great day racing with you on that Saturday. You have written a wonderful race report! You have captured the event pretty well I think, the preparation, the nerves, the efforts. It was not easy but it was an amazing experience.

Hey Luke,
There is no criteria. The idea is for you to tell us why they deserve these awards.
That is why we would like you to provide comments

What’s the criteria for these two?
The King of the Mountain Award
The Club Champion Award…the rest are pretty clear
-
I nominate Sarah Smith and Greg Murray for most improved rider/racer of the year!
I think we should have this category awarded to a male and female rider separately.
I nominate Andrew Ballam for most inspirational rider. -

Our “SPR Out Of Lycra” (SPROOLER) events are growing in popularity (and dare I say notoriety?!) and the Giro d’Italia Dinner a few weeks ago was no exception. Sixty One 61 of our SPR members and partners attended a fun filled night of delicious wood fired pizzas and pasta taking over the entire top floor at Sopranos Ristorante in South Perth for our Giro d’Italia Dinner.
As you can imagine when cyclists get together, there were all kinds of tall tales & true to be exchanged and the dinner was interspersed with several quizzes designed to keep the competitive juices flowing even while off the bike. This also served to sort out those who are seriously committed to their chosen 2 wheel craft from the pretenders who were just there for the food… oh yes, and the beer.
With such astonishingly expensive and luxuriant prizes on offer (such as boxes of Bacci chocolates) it should come as no surprise that competition in the quizzes was hotter than a sprint up Ewen Street. So hot that a playoff was required to separate the two competing teams vying for top spot. Each quickly elected a Captain and it was Bill “The Grip” (a.k.a Angry Duck) and Gary “Iron Hands” Boylan who were each handed a pair of surgical rubber gloves and in readiness for their face off… to get a tubeless and tireless racing rim ready for action and up to race pressure in shortest possible time with no tools or assistance other a hand pump.
The winner by a pinch flat was Bill in the extraordinary time of 2 minutes and 20 seconds…impressive! How long can he hold onto the record? For quite some time we suspect…well at least until the next social event.
A good time was had by all and the prize of a pizza voucher for the best dressed went to Cathi Dixon who was resplendent in her full Maglia Rosa regalia with Andrew and Jimmi close runners up. For a full photographic record of the evenings undertakings please see below.
Thank you to all who supported the evening. As we countdown to what is arguably the biggest Grand Departe of the year, watch the SPR blog for details of our next big SPORROLERS event which will be a Tour de France dinner planned to coincide with the end of the Tour. Details will be posted very soon.
And until next years Giro, arrivederci, ciao and buona ciclismo!
