Well the time has come to fly the club flag at the BWA Swan Valley Cyclo Sportif this coming Sunday. SPR will dominate on the day… having a record number of nearly 70 riders across 8 teams…yee ha!
Schedule for the day
6:45am Registrations open – register any time between then and the rider briefing
7:30am Rider briefing – essential for Ride Leaders to attend
7:45am Club photo – all SPR folk to meet at the club tent inside the rear door of the Speed Dome for a group shot
8:00am Head to start line – teams ride 8kms to the start line at Herne Hill Primary School
11:30am onwards – lunch and Grand Prix
SPR jerseys – A number of people are without the new club kit. If you happen to have a spare jersey, could you kindly bring it on the day (pop name on the inside tag). Riders will return the jersey to the club tent for your collection following the ride.
For the ride – remember to bring sufficient food and water to get you through the ride.
Ride Leaders – please read BWA’s information at http://www.bwa.org.au/events/178/ so you’re aware of your responsibilities on the day.
Good luck everyone!
Anyone fancy riding out there for warm up. I plan to leave at about 6.45 from home and head up Gt Eastern, then into Guildford and Midland. I can swing by the car park if there are any takers, or we can arrange meeting points along the way
Planning to ride in also, I am a little further south. Where do you plan to cross Roe hwy?
Craig
Absolutely, I’m planning on riding there and home. What time can I meet you at the carpark?
6.40 at car park. Craig, we don’t cross roe hwy on the planned route
So, about 7:10 at the Old Guildford Hotel corner. Keep going if I’m not there waiting for you lot.
All these hardcore folk not satisfied with the sportif distance.. Going the extra mile.. Admirable..
A few northeners starting from my place (Karrinyup/North Beach Road) at around 6:15am on Sunday and heading straight down Karrinyup/Morley drive if any Northeners want to jump on our train, let me know.. Can give etas of points along our route…
@ryan, I believe I will endeavour to meet you at Karrinyup and Main at about 6:20am.
6.15?? For a 8.53 start- pointless riding for a warmup if we have to sit around for an hour n half
Rider briefing at 7:30, but more importantly, Team photo is at 7:45…
There will be faffing, and one has to register (before rider briefing I believe)..
There is an eight km ride to the start ride.. Maybe if done at pace this will be sufficient to rewarm them aged muscles??
I’m just north of Morley Drive so will loiter around Morley Drive/Flinders St intersection at about 6.22am
I’ll hook up at cnr morley dr and Wellington rd about 6.28:)
I’m thinking of other end of the Swan Valley “it’s not a race” Cyclo… & suggesting a post ride de brief over a beer at The Windsor tomorrow evening? 6:00pm?
[chick chick…. boom! ] That’s for the Princesses!
I like that idea.
In for that, good spot there.
