Dulwich Hill Bicycle Club

Hi Trackies, just noticed that the entries close this Sunday for the Cycecover Sydney Cup on wheels at Dunc. Anyone doing it?

hmmm $3000 prize money and only 4 riders booked. And for the Madison if team DHBC put in some a grade riders you could clean up.

Simon and I will be entering the madison, so we get free entry for the open anyway.

Good luck in the madison Alex/Simon. I'll be in nowra for the two weeks surrounding that race, and can't justify getting a train back up when there are no events for me in the program.

I'm in, although if more people don't enter tonight, it's looking like a sad event.

Yeah I was thinking that and I can't believe there would be 3k in prizes for all 3 of us.

Entered

Opps, I've got no transport

Might be able to take you, but that depends on whether I end up moving house that weekend or not.

Thanks JB, choppo is giving me a lift

They've moved the madison from this weekend and hence we dont get free entry into this race anymore. Not sure if im going to race it or not now.

3K of prizes and only 4 entrants.....bugger....you don't get a medal for 4th place so I still might miss out!!

The start list has climbed up to about 30. It seems to be partially linked to a clarence street cyclery cup the following week. Eitherway I'm confused and not expecting much from the $3000 prize pool.

email them complaining, pointing out that when you entred it said free entry to it, and that you want to protest

I snuck in this evening, had the page open from last night... Should be fun!

Should be fun... have fun without me though as I'm in the middle of a house move and the rest of it so can't make it.

i managed to pick up a bronze in the NSW kilo last night, so least now i dont have to worry about doing well tonight.

oops didnyt see this, thought it deserved a thread

Congratulations to Alex for 5th in the Wheel race and Ian for been in the money in the sprint. Apologies for the dodgy phone photos

Ian Collects his prize money


Me? Rode like crap but improved as the evening went on. Got hit in the rear after the race finished, ended up with some spokes in the cogs but managed to stay upright. David said he took evasive action for my pending crash, he was sure I was going down, but it didn't feel that bad to me. Thanks Anthony BP for the wheel loan.

amazing how the spokes ripped into the hub

glad to see you came out ok

lol!! yeah congrats chugg
Man me and simon were having the worst night until i pulled my foot during a massive push from one of the nsw sprinter lads in the wheel race repecharge, i then road around the bottom of the track for the corner, and jumped on the back of simon! we were then on the back of all these young lads that lead us right to the fron qualifying 5th and 6th! it seriously changed my day from one of the crappest in months, to im glad i turned up!
