The Sydney Sunday Session crew are holding Sprint Races on Sunday 10th Jan.

Details:
Meeting at Martin Place from 5pm – roll out about 5.30-6.00.
Races will be held on a strip along Hickson Rd.
Gold coin donation for the prize and there will be guys and girls races.
The track is about 200m.

Ladies you should come on down, it’s always good fun and even if you don’t want to participate, it’s a good chance to meet some other female cyclists and the crew are all super friendly. You don’t need to be riding fixed, any style of bike is welcome so whatever your flavour come and say hi!

More details on the SSS facebook group.

I’m back in Sydney now, I’m certainly going to miss Japan. I had the most amazing time and met so many lovely people. I’ll definitely be going back, I feel like I’ve seen such a small part of a such a varied and beautiful country. I’ve put my CMWC pics on flickr, you can check them out here.

More good times at the Worlds on Thursday, headed over to watch the finals of the Skids and Sprint race competitions which had many thrills and spills and drew a huge crowd. Benzy <Melbourne courier> put in a top effort, while Joe <Melbourne courier> displayed some fantastic agility, he managed to sip/skid/stack all without spilling a single drop of his Sapporo, good work Joe!

The highlight of the sprint race had to be The Original Nakenger, a Frenchman who apparently earnt his nickname some years ago in Paris when he threw his kit off and attempted to swim the river Seine with his bike in tow. He obviously made it to get naked on another day, I’ve heard mixed reports on the survival of the bike. Viva La Française! I say. With all the images of naked chicks on bikes flooded all over the internet I say we could do with a few more fit, naked men on bikes!
