Race 5 – October 24th

Competitors came from everywhere this morning; 115 Lycra clad enthusiast, which makes it very busy for Doug and the timekeepers. With that in mind can you please all understand that if you wish to start at 6:00am you must register no later than 5:30am.

Adding to the excitement this morning we were testing a new timing programme that will drag us kicking and screaming into the 21^st Century. Angela the team leader from the University was pleased with the results so far and said it gave her a good insight into what is needed to ensure the programme works well.

Emily Roper did a fantastic time on her bike of 25:28. Well done Emily.

Good luck to everyone competing next week in Noosa.
