ride routes 5th & 6th april

well the uwct has been run and won again this year and it was great to see so many spr jerseys out in force.  even better was the amount of support on the course with random people (probably not random, but hard to focus while racing) shouting out as we rode past.  no one took up my suggestion of actually pushing me up the hill, especially on the last couple of laps when i actually needed it.  even better again, was seeing/hearing that brett and nicky were out to support the spr racers.  i briefly got to see brett on the start line and it was great to see him up and about.  even though it was a pretty important race last weekend, the main takeaway for me (and other in the public i heard from) was the amount of support that we had out on course.  not only that, the way that we help support others in the race with bottles and general cheering was also noted.

ride leaders – support the club and help us become ambassadors for the sport in the public eye. put your name down as ride leader to ensure that the group ride is safe and organised. stu has written a bit about what i means to be a ride leader which pretty much sums it up.  sign up here.

goldfields cyclassic – the next big race on the calendar is at the start of june and as it is in kalgoorlie, it will take a bit of organising.  more info is on the previous post and if you are interested, please put your name in the comments section.

brett and nicky donations – you may have seen that there is a donations button on the right of the webpage.  with most accidents, there are usually a lot of out of pocket expenses that are not covered by all the different types of insurance.  a lot of people have been very generous with their time and skills to help the guys get through this.  if you think that there isn’t much you can do physically, then feel free to donate to help them with any ongoing expenses.  donations will be closed off at the end of this weekend.  thanks to all those that have donated, there have been some very generous amounts of which i am sure the guys will be grateful for.

ride routes – well uwct is over so time for those to test their legs in the saturday fast ride instead.  holmes road will certainly be testing.
