ClydeB1 Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Great race as usual Gerald. Had fun in my first ride with the VC bunch, at least until the turn for home. Held on for a while but then the inevitable split. Finished in 2:30:50. Sorry to miss the November edition now but will be doing Wine2Whales.
ClydeB1 Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 So another Macsteel this year?Yip on 6th November
Frosty Posted February 21, 2016 Author Posted February 21, 2016 More details about the race in the coming week.
HappyMartin Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 What a well organized race. Easy access and exit from well organized parking with efficient and effective people directing cars. Start was simple to get to and we'll run. Markings on the road to indicate narrowing roads and potholes was superb. Marshals were vizible, friendly and made it easy to see where to go. Finish wasn't jammed with people and it was easy to get from the finish to the car park. I wish all races could be run like this. A lesson for organizers of other races. This is how a race should be run. Personally it was a tough ride. I got shelled and suffered in the wind and a little bit of rain. I know what I need to do. Must just get out and do it. Thanks to the organizers. What a superb effort. To all you guys and gals give yourselves a pat n the back.
IceCreamMan Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Concur with happymartin, all good except the rain but guess you can't blame organizers for that
Zatek Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Where does one lodge a complaint against a cyclist so that he doesn't ride in VA again. Cyclelab rider VA 254 or 245. Sorry it was 225 According to me he almost caused 6 accidents that I am aware of and he was dangerous at Ride 4 sight as well.

Shout at him. Whatever. He might learn from that. Often new guys get yelled at if they don't know what's up. Happened to me. I think that's the first place to start.
MrDLR Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 It was a nice hard day just unfortunate that I got caught behind a split just as the elites started atacking but hopefully I'll have better luck next time. All in all it was a good day
