Man, you are quicker than me! I hadn't even blogged it! ;-)
Thanks, it was a good race. Mildura-Coomealla Cycling
Club could teach some of the Melbourne clubs a thing or
two
If you are heading to NE Vic, see if they have a race on:

Nup, I think it was Kevin Tankard that got overall. He
won the ITT. I won the road race. Next time I'll
be going harder in the ITT and I'll carry more water
and not be on the **** the night before, and, and..
> were the 2 results combined for an overall result?
Yep, some kind of points system.
> Have people in Mildura not heard of wheelsuckin???
As if they could hold my wheel.. sheesh man! ;-)
We were doing TT turns in a bunch of 4-8 riders during
most of the race until I jumped from the bunch of 4 with
50m(?) to go.

"Mildura's "Spring Tour" requires a top effort in the 16km time trial and a placing in the top ten in the 48km handicap road race for any rider to earn the privilege of their name being engraved on the L & V Westcott shield, appropriately adorned with a Campagnolo chain ring."
probably just as well you 'held back' in the ITT. you woulda been worthy of having your name engraved on a shield beside a Campag ring

I got sick of Melbourne weather last week.. ;-)
I had planned to head up there for the long w/e a
while back. It wasn't until a couple of days before
leaving that I contacted the club to see if there was
a race on. There was. I raced.

I'm going to have such a problem on the GVBR. I woosed out riding this
weekend, because it was too "hot". 24 on Sat, 28 on Sun.
Damn those northern European genes.

So Dutch.....If I join Cycling Aust through the Defence Membership, does
that mean I can race at club races for just the $5 entry fee??
I am pretty keen to have a crack at a crit as although I don't rate myself
as a sprinter, I reckon it would be a lot of fun. Maybe we could tee
something up and I could lead out for ya or something (I have been told that
I punch a reasonably large hole in the wind??)
Ride On,

You are sick man! Sick or evil? They're temps in my
place at night! I will admit that racing in 30deg+ heat
is a bit more taxing but there's nothing better than
40degs beating down, the dry air, the tar that will
melt your tyres if you stop, the hallucinations, turning
into a zombie because you ran out of water with 20k
to home but refused to fill a bottle because you're a
stubborn *****, knowing you are sweating more than
you could possibly 'drink' in a whole day, searching
for houses with over-shooting sprinklers to ride under,
drinking a 1.25L bottle of softdrink before even making
the supermarket checkout...

hehehe.. wishful thinking mate! wishful thinking..
my big, bad legs turn into dead weights when I
have to make them go 'up'. The hipsta doesn't
travel too well over dirt either. Hopefully the
others will carry me.. right bici-soiler? right?

43.6kph, yeah. But even yours-truly sat on ~38kph (taking
it easy for the road race I might add) and I wasn't running a
disc-wheel, TT machine with aerobars...
