Trainerroad visit to Australia

Pretty much. Just wear your club kit if you got one, or something more or less plain. I am sure, John Sundee will be fine with it.

robcumine · February 18, 2020, 4:30am

Going to come and meet and watch? I’ll be riding In from Nth Shore somewhere.

SomeCallMeTim · February 18, 2020, 4:37am

It is going to be Centennial celebrations for St.George CC, so I’ll be racing at Oatley Park that arvo.

Nate_Pearson · February 18, 2020, 5:27am

Can I wear my TR kit? I’m confused. You can only wear certain kits?

a59a2e9a2645dbb · February 18, 2020, 5:44am

I can’t answer for the one venue or event, but after years of racing in NSW, VIC, and SA I can say I have NEVER seen a forced kit rule across any discipline. The only time one of us didn’t have our team kit on was if we were the series leader, in that case an issued leaders jersey is worn.

It’s an issue with some clubs in NSW but at Heffron doesn’t matter. So yes you can. I asked a local rider

Tour of Bright did a few years back

Having spent two years living in Narrabeen the ride up to West Head is the bit of Australia I miss the most. Getting out there before heading to work during week or part of a longer weekend ride down to Akuna Bay / Cottage Point was my idea of heaven. Lovely rolling roads, not much traffic, the smells of the bush (ok and roadkill) and some amazing views. That and only needing at most some arm warmers even in deep mid-winter.

Who’s hosting the racing Saturday? I can’t see anything on Buncheur.

robcumine · February 18, 2020, 8:35pm

Randwick Cycling Club - sign on from 2pm, race starts at 3pm for Div 1-Div 4.

SomeCallMeTim · February 18, 2020, 9:55pm

So do Manly-Warringah club that host Westhead races.

Jayacher · February 19, 2020, 3:15am

Except I see people in non-club kit all the time at West Head. It’s usually only in state level races, of which @Nate_Pearson is not doing any, just club level. TR kit will be fine. Also, depending on who is running registration at the Saturday Heffron, they might not let you into Div 1 (they changed this year from A-C grade to Div 1-5).

That’s fine though because Div 2 is still a demanding race.

SomeCallMeTim · February 19, 2020, 3:21am

I almost got kicked out for not wearing mine several years ago.

Will Nate be able to get a racing license for one day only ?

robcumine · February 19, 2020, 3:31am

There are one week license available in every state $44.

Nate_Pearson · February 19, 2020, 4:14am

They are going to see my legs and go “no man, you’re C grade”

I’ll make sure to wear pants.

SomeCallMeTim · February 19, 2020, 4:25am

That’ll send you straight to E-Grade.

robcumine · February 19, 2020, 5:56am

Dont shave your legs either

Nate_Pearson · March 1, 2020, 7:06pm

Few questions as I prepare!

Can I do this at Heffron park on Saturday or do I need to do it online?

Heffron Park Saturday

2pm sign up
3pm race

I got a “camera license” online. Should I also talk to the race director and tell them I have a camera?

Heffron Park Tuesday

What time does it start?
I see another club puts these on, do I need to do anything different?

It looks like it’s going to rain the entire time I’m there too. I was going to run 28 GP5000s for the crit. Will they hold the race in the rain?

Thanks!

robcumine · March 1, 2020, 8:46pm

Hey mate

License - You can get online https://cycling.org.au/membership/race

Hahaha yes, a “camera license” - better to have a chat with the Comm. I am sure he will be fine.

It will be up to the Club and Commissaires, a week ago Heffron was literally flooded

See on Saturday - I checked the weather 10-20mm is torrential rain! yet its 36degs there today.

Nate_Pearson · March 1, 2020, 11:24pm

So do you think there will be a race sat or not?

I can race the Saturday after that too if I miss this one.
