If you want to see some video of DHBC in motion in the race watch this at about 2:11 https://youtu.be/HTw4w_lyi8A

D grade was fast as well I think. I was dropped but still managed 34 kph off the back and I estimate they were doing 35-36 kph. The bunch was faster. It is a flat course but those two sharp turn are a killer if you don't have good power and technique. At the same pace I would have won E grade at Hef...

One point of anxiety with that crossing is the upcoming hill. I think that all of us are keen to not lose speed and get dropped at that point. So maybe if we make that section a neutral zone where the leader must wait for the stragglers, then maybe some of the pressure can be alleviated for the cro...

I enjoyed my first race in 4 months. While giving Michael the chance to get away was unintended, I assumed that the others would go around me; I did think that I could work for Tim to help him get away for third. I was just surprised that he went at a 1,000 meters. Next month I will have to make sur...

The idea of a cup of tea at the top of the hill is too much. I have signed up. Hopefully I will get over the mountain twice! Eight weeks should be enough to get me into some reasonable fitness. It is a good target to work towards. I think I am the only MMAS5 cat rider from DBHC so far. I see there a...

I think that it will now be harder for Evans to win the TDF because his team will need to controll the race. I don't know if they have the depth to control it in the mountains. They have a history of control on the sprinters stages but they usually do that in conjunction with teams like Quickstep an...

While I am no sure of Pat Farmer's motivation and at first I rejected this out of hand I have changed my thinking. I think the Bicycle NSW position is what can cycling do to get itself a strong seat at the table when roads and transport are being discussed. Pay some sort of rego fee would give the c...

The NRMA seems to have a real problem with cyclist. I remember earlier this year when Critical Mass has one of their Bridge rides the NRMA spokesman said that what ever they were trying to achieve they had done their cause harm. That seem to me to be one of the most ill informed statement the NRMA c...

Re: cents per litre not percent
I think Eugen's comments go to one of the central issues about bike paths in NSW. They don't connect to the rest of the transport system in any meaningful way. It took a concerted effort on my part to find the start to the M7 cycleway. The cycleway end just in streets with no supporting cycle-paths...

I know this is off the point but I feel so frustrated by my fellow cyclist behaviour. Every weekday morning I get off the bus in Oxford street and wait to cross the road at the lights. Every morning the people crossing the road at the lights on the other side of Oxford Street take their lives in the...
