ride routes 19th – 25th march

12804663_10207482052243576_864156240251221661_nafter months of training for a particular event, you often find yourself at a loose end once the event has finished.  there are a bunch of events coming up just after easter for you to concentrate on.  the dams ride, the midland hilly 100, and even delirium if you are feeling game.  alternatively, you can just ride for fun to allow yourself a reprieve from the grind. (i think i will take the second option).

regenerativeBodywork_finalride leader sponsor – the ride leader for march is Regenerative Bodywork Remedial and Sport Massage.  owned and operated by SPR member Emily Lee, Regenerative Bodywork Remedial and Sport Massage utilises a range of techniques such as deep tissue, trigger point therapy, myofascial release & joint mobilisation to effectively relieve pain and tension throughout the whole body.  for more info please see the previous post.

rules of engagement – please read the previous post if you come out on any of our rides.  it is up to all members to enforce these rules.

Feedback1survey feedback – if you filled in the club survey we did last year there was an opportunity to include some written feedback.  if you did add anything, i have responded to each and everyone.  see the previous post to find your reply.

history cyclingmuseum of perth – tucked in behind henry saw which is tucked into grand lane which is tucked into the back of the murray st mall, is the museum of perth.  this month’s exhibition is on our hidden cycling history.  here you will discover the history of cycling in perth and find that it has been here longer than the white tradie ute.  see the website for more details and drop in for a coffee at henry saw.

20160310_130617beyond the bike exhibition– as part of bike week, there is a small exhibition of tony lendrum’s beyond the bike project.  as you can see from the picture on the header, the walls either side of henry saw have been decorated with some of his photos and the riders text is also included.  although, many of you have seen the photos online, this is an opportunity to hopefully attract a few more viewers from passing traffic.  while you are there, check out the museum of perth cycling exhibition and grab a coffee from henry’s.

giro 01giro d’perth – this weekend is the giro d’perth which is a low key ride to involve family or friends that don’t ride a lot.  there are 3 distances and it is more like a treasure hunt than a bike race. it is run by spr member toby hodgson and supported by the club.  last year there were over 500 riders in attendance.  see the previous post for more details.

bike_sticker_heiko-300x225bike stickers – the bike name stickers that we ordered earlier in the year will be available for collection at the coffee shop on saturday.  if you cannot collect them, send an email through to the club and we will make alternative arrangements.

free beginner ladies group skills – held on the 19th march at the coode st carpark, this is an opportunity for any women that may want to take that next step from solo riding to riding with a group.  if you know anyone that may be interested, please pass on the information that can be found on the previous post.

state criterium championships – along with rccc, we will be holding the state crit champs this saturday.  it is an all day affair with juniors in the morning and seniors in the afternoon.  we will need a few volunteers throughout the day to help on rego and drinks.  racing starts at 8:30am and pack up is around 4:30pm, so i am looking at four x 2 hours shifts. let me know via the comments if you are available to do setup (8:30-10:30), morning (10:30-12:30), afternoon (12:30-14:30) or the packup shift (14:30-16:30).  entries close tonight, so see the facebook event page for more details.

10409159_10153219567367204_1412408697106681127_nspr crit champs – as part of the summer crit series, we will also run a spr crit championship.  this will again be a points based system given to placings 1 through 10.  “a” and “b” grade will be given a difficulty multiplier and a leaderboard will track progress.  there are 7 races that we are the final race will be the state champs on the 19th march. your points for the best 5 races will be used in the final leaderboard.  this allows you to have holidays, miss races and still be in the running.  more details on the previous post.

spr road race champs – off the back of the crit championships will be the road race championships for 2016.  there are a number of races identified that riders will accumulate point for.  a change in the scoring system this year to try to allow those that have a go at ‘a’ grade a better chance of getting points.  please see the previous postfor more info.

ride routes – there seems to be a problem with the garmin mapping function and the embedded maps are not showing up.  hopefully, below each map is a link to the actual map which you can then view. i am currently talking to garmin about a fix for this.  if any of the maps that we are using this week don’t have a link, let me know as i was updating them as i used them.
