RACING OVERVIEW

Racing is a big part of the Club. We host our own Club Championship competition as well as entering many local races. Racing isn't just for the 'elites' and we cater for all levels. Come give it a try!

Getting Started

We want to encourage those who have never raced before to pin on a number for the first time. We are here to offer advice and encouragement to help you achieve your goals.

Time Trials

Also known as the race of truth, in a time trial there is no place to hide. It's rider versus the clock! It's just you , the bike and the thumping of your heart. 

Club Championships

Our club championships are designed to create competition across a number of different disciplines and grades. It has something for everyone!

Road races

Taking place on public roads, these mass start events can be point-to-point races or long loops. The terrain is more varied with longer climbs. Tactical riding & teams come into play more.

Crit Races

A criterium, or crit, is a race consisting of several laps around a short, closed circuit. Criteriums are a staple of the local racing scene in Sydney and we have lots of them!

Sportifs

Also known as gran fondos  these mass participation events offer both seasoned racers and newcomers a long distance challenge that can be as gruelling or straightforward as they wish.
