Race Report

Only one ride in the series to go now: in two weeks time and it'll be a 6:00am start, five minutes later than we've been until now.
It's not that we're heading into winter in any hurry but the sun is getting lazy and taking longer to get above the trees. And today even saw a few people looking for jackets, given the breeze that was blowing; again. But today it stayed to the end of the event. All the same, there was a jump in the number of PBs posted. There should have been one more but he fell off his bike going around the turn at the top end. He said he lay on the ground for a while (about five minutes) but getting no sympathy, he got back on and finished the ride. The times actually show that he probably lost about fifteen seconds so Luke is still heading in the right direction. It was a gear shift that went wrong and the new Bianchi objected. Anyway neither the bike nor Luke suffered any significant damage so that's OK and all will be redeemed on Sunday morning on our new, FLAT, hot-dog course at Hennessy Rd, Whiteman.

A quick glance at the points table shows that, of today's riders, only four can't qualify for the series—all the rest can and there are surely a few more who didn't ride today who can also complete five rides. That's not a bad result for the series and remember that the series prize presentations will be at the Zamia on Saturday, the 23rd of this month (8:00am). It's booked, I'll be there but I'd like to hear if you intend to join me there. Send me an email.

Teneal seems to have jumped to a bit of a lead in the fast speed-group with her collection of points today—even allowing that riders can drop their least-good rides if they have more than five. I'll post the calculated speed groups for this season to the Parkbirds page in the next day or so, together with the 'Best-five' totals where they're available.

Carolyn Equid and David had once more set up the course after which David got on his bike while Carolyn got behind the rego desk and, after a couple of hours of that, packed away the course paraphernalia and joined us at the Zamia. During that interval 128 riders were sent off on their 5-lap rides by Lorraine, assisted by Olivia McIntyre; Karl McIntyre and Mark Lommers swapped to the city-end barriers for this event and, while not there, did their usual 5-lappers while Adrian Emilsen looked after the barriers down at the UWA end; Lou Rho was back to call the numbers and, together we sorted out a few times missing due to the inevitable non-functioning or not-present transponder—all good fun that keeps us focussed. And 128 riders equalled our best-sized field to date.
