Cycling NSW & Lidcombe-Auburn Cycling Club warmly invite all NSW cycling club members to take part in a weekend of exciting criterium racing at the home of the 2000 Olympic Games, Sydney Olympic Park, on October 19-20.

Coinciding with two of Sydney’s largest cycling events, the Cycling Australia ‘Bike & Lifestyle Exhibition’ and the Bicycle NSW ‘Spring Cycle’, it’s your only chance of the year to race at one of Australia’s most historic sports venues against riders from all over NSW, and beyond.

Saturday’s racing takes the form of the 2013 NSW U19, U23 & Elite Criterium Championships, with separate U19 and Elite races for men and women.

Sunday’s racing is part of the 2013 Festival of Cycling and features A, B, C, D and E grade Open criteriums, plus NRS and Women’s races, as well as events for junior boys and girls. There will also be a hand cycling event.

Entries can be made online right now via the Cycling NSW website or on the day at Sydney Olympic park, Homebush.

The Sunday crits are just normal club crits held at a fancy location. C'mon!

There should be a women's A and B. I think it's just that most women racers are elite women racers. You're elite, Eleri, regardless of what your license says.

Looks like the women's races are at risk of being cancelled because not enough women have entered. Unfortunately I can't enter as I am away at a triathlon.

However, I would encourage any women out there looking to give racing a go to give it a shot.

I can't race as we're away up the Hunter Valley that weekend at the fabulous Lake's Folly members lunch ...
