We(in conjunction with CGC) will be hosting the third inter-club on the route tomorrow afternoon and will do our best to comply. Invitation has been sent to Ken to visit us at the finish as well for a drink and wors roll

I'd love Confused to see cyclists being DQd for rule transgressions, and not to only hear the some old warning before every race

 

People act like idiots, coz idiots get away with acting like that.... Maybe add some consequences to actions...

Not just the inter-club, at any and all cycling races!

Playing devil's advocate here but riding 2 abreast is illegal. Race or no race.

 

Useless fact for the week: A few weeks ago I was on my way home from Sun City and there was a rider on a mountain bike being followed by a car travelling along the pecanwood road at about 20kph. The two of them made a nice rolling road block...I'm a cyclist and I was keen on ploughing the car into the ditch and making the cyclist a hood ornament...

 

To every story there are two sides and over reaction...

It is legal in a race that is sanctioned by the local authorities. Just like running stop streets and red lights also becomes legal in a sanctioned race.

This could be inncorect H, more than likely it's club 100 jerseys?

 

On the way to Teak Place on Sunday there were three riders stopped, standing halfway into the one traffic circle.

MTN Kit, but Club 100 not the team strip.
