Sounds like a south african migration patern going on ;D . im not from sydney so i dont know what its like down there race wise. In nsw/vic there is more racing than qld i think. robbie mcewan is a queenslander
. vo2 is coming over too but he said hes going near brisbane. So thats about 1000km away from sydney ;D . The racing licence for open is $140-150 i think and Club only is about 100. I wonder what grade you guys will be in A or B would be my guess. I get a 10% discount of all my bike shop purchases couse im in the club. now on my new wheels that more than covers the membership costs. ![]() |

Thanks Nicholas.
A grade racing here will be a 40 - 45km/h average speed over a flattish course. 35km/h for a hilly one. Does that sound about the same as yours over there? Do you know if there are there any cyclists from Sydney on here? |
