Cyclo Sportif Action!

Last weekend saw the final BWA Cyclo Sportif of the year ran out of Byford.  Congrats go to SPR Mixed Nuts, SPR – SKM and SPR Chasers for their efforts flying the club flag.  The most technical part of the course was leaving the car park up the mud slope but once we’d rolled out much fun was to be had, being out in the sun with the hundreds of other riders, cycling past the many cow filled paddocks, breathing in the crisp country air (ignoring the occassional whiff of road kill!)  Our Mixed Nuts bunch had a fantastic time with both guys and girls sharing the load as we covered the 82 km with speed, style and a lot of giggles!  There was a lack of karaoke singing this time ’round but certainly lots of pedals working together.

If you’ve ever contemplated participating in a Cyclo but haven’t yet taken the plunge then think about this:
•  High end bike $4000
•  SPR Kit $250
•  Cyclo Sportif entry fee for members $55
•  Soaking up the sun on a glorious morning riding through the beautiful outskirts of Perth with great people, followed by a cooked lunch and prize    draws …PRICELESS!

We hope to have more eager Rouleurs join us at these events in 2012, so if you’re keen to do something a little bit different with your SPR mates then stay tuned ‘cause early in 2012 we’ll be looking to build numbers so we can make a mark on these events (and have a lot of fun in the process!).
