Go & Grade Yourself

New South Wales cyclists now have to re-enter a grade to race in Queensland. A grade query form is available on the Cycling Queensland website. Fill it in, send it to them and cc a copy to Garry Creighton. The Queensland handicapper is keen to liaise with NSW club handicappers to produce a grade for cyclists. Looks like NSW handicapping is being bypassed.

Racing Away

Well done to all those members who rode at the Sunshine Tour. I expect by now all the stories have been told. It’s a great event. The bunches set a cracking pace. I enjoyed the spa the best, my form was horrible.

Tony Clarke, Neale McLennan rode the Grafton TTT with Paul Howard, Anthony Condon and Dave Boutken. They completed the 100ks in 2hrs 44 mins to come 5^th(?) in the Masters category. Good effort. Brendan Cole was in the winning team on the day, approximately 10 mins outside the record.

A number of club riders went to the Keegan Downes Memorial race in Coonabarabran on the 28^th June. Hal Holley, Wayne Brien, Neale Mclennan and Brendan Cole raced over 2oo kms for the weekend. Nine riders from this area took part – Johnny Nicholls, Paul Howard, Peter McMahon, Michael McCall made a great support cast.

Next meeting - Thursday 6th August
