The much awaited Race All Winter (RAW) Track series for 2018 draft program in the comments. Get on the track and support this great annual series which is probably the best fun you'll ever have on a bike.

jcaley

Just a reminder that Easter Monday is our Monthly Madison. Bring matching (non-DHBC) jerseys if you have them

jcaley

great story Dougie and what a fantastic ride!

jcaley

For those woh are contemplating training, the track should be dry tonight 26 February despite today's afternoon shower

jcaley

Does anyone have one of these thingies that will upgrade a powertap SL2.4 hub to ant+ and will work again (despite being sold as only working once)? They are no longer sold anywhere that I can see.

jcaley

Just a reminder that this coming Monday 19 Feb is our monthly Monday Marathon 120 lapper. All are welcome and we can loan you a track bike. More info on the thread here

jcaley

Ah, I'm terrible with calendars. Actually, probably better not to. Wednesday the 3rd Jan will be a regular track session.

jcaley

We won't be opening the track for training on
25th Dec 2017(that's Christmas Day)
28th Dec 2017(enter to race or watch the X-mas carnival instead)
1st Jan 2018 (You guessed it - New Years day)

First night for 2018 is Madison Monday on 3rd Jan

jcaley

Hi Olaf, I guess you found out what happened. The motorbike came out - that much I know.

jcaley

Because we didn't ride last Monday - this week is Madison Monday!

jcaley

We need lots of volunteers to make this night happen. Could you - help set up beforehand between 1-3pm? - help serve on the bar for an hour? (need RSA certificate) - staff the entry for an hour? - help manage parking for an hour? - help pack away for an hour at the end? If so, please e-mail adamfarr...

jcaley

Looks like the last storm has headed out to sea. Should be all dry on Tempe tonight

jcaley

How about 3 December?

jcaley

Those riding the Fitz's challenge this year are welcome at my brother Peter's place at 43 MacKellar Cr Cook from 6pm Saturday night. It could be that Peter and Polly like entertaining, or maybe Peter is just looking for a way to make us all as slow as him. Anyway, all DHBC Fitz riders and their hang...

jcaley

All the money goes in the jar.

jcaley

There are DHBC bottles at the velodrome. Can someone confirm the price?

jcaley

no rain in Tempe if you were wondering whether to come to training tonight

jcaley

I'll check on Wednesday

jcaley

120 lap paceline tonight on Tempe Velodrome. All CA licenced riders welcome.

jcaley

1. neilm all the way
2. JohnC most of the way

jcaley

Just 2 weeks left of RAW. DHBC is a couple of points behind St George in the teams challenge. It would be nice to finish ahead and it gives us negotiating rights re the make up of the Italian pursuit teams that ride off for the club team challenge on the final night . If you come and ride RAW for th...

jcaley

If you need a Cycling Australia Licence for the day, you can purchase one online here for $20

jcaley

Madison might tonight 4/9/2017. Bring a matching second jersey if you can

jcaley

Arrive at 12.30 so we can set up bikes etc. We'll go until 3pm. All genders and abilities most welcome.

jcaley

I can bring a 14

jcaley

120 lapper tonight. For most people gearing something like 96 should work well.

jcaley

Thanks Mike - the wind really did have a big impact

jcaley

whats was craigs actual time?

jcaley

Great Madison last night! Kudos to Caitin teaming up with Alex to come second and Colin hanging in there with me for third.

jcaley

Earlwood maybe?

jcaley

Track training is cancelled for tonight 2 August 2017 due to a problem with the velodrome lights. Please tell anyone who might be coming

jcaley

Yes, and one particularly strong one as it turned out

jcaley

Race report. l started in the second bunch 4 minutes behind the limit bunch. Everyone looked fit and fast. It was very windy at the start and the word in the carpark was that this favoured the scratch bunch as they had more power. As we rode along, I did a fair bit of talking and cajoling our group ...

jcaley

anyone want to share transport?

jcaley

Monday night marathon tonight - perfect conditions

jcaley

HI Mike I'll have them please

jcaley

Hi Aimee,
there is a DHBC ride through RNP each Sunday starting 6am fron the square. Usually a few riders are on it.

jcaley

Yes - unless there is a sudden heatwave, the track will be wet tonight 12 June. But depair not! A solid roller/trainers session tonight could be just what your legs ehart and lungs need. Bring a small towel to stop sweat dripping onto your headset bolt and a larger one if you want to shower afterwar...

jcaley

nice video. Who is on the bike with the camera?

jcaley

jcaley

June has started - lets race a Madison on Tempe tonight

jcaley

Wow - that's some great riding Paul!

jcaley

Ahh, I have never entered before and was surprised at the cost

jcaley

I just entered online at 11.15 am. So much for it selling out in 6 minutes

jcaley

Ben are you riding a steel steed?

jcaley

Monday night marathon tonight. See earlier posts for details

jcaley

yeah Jo - should have asked someone about that road. The ride left me very leg-sore but gave my endurance fitness a nice fillip. Bro hasn't got back on a bike since but then he wasn't riding beforehand either ...

jcaley

Stuart most of the patchy roads are better to ride a bicycle speeds - you can take a smooth path through them that a car or motorbike could not follow. Having said that, it was no fun on those 100% pothole sections of the thunderbolts way

jcaley

Monday 1 May can only be one thing - Madison night. The best fun training you can have on two wheels.

jcaley

Well that was epic. With a 285km goal on day 1 and Bro not having ridden since January, I took on the pace setting out over the bridge, through Mosman and across the spit bridge. We basically followed the most recent adventure ride route to Palm Beach and had time for breakfast at the boathouse befo...

jcaley

Yes Paul, junior track training continues through the holidays.

jcaley

This Monday and Tuesday Bro and I are riding to Armidale via the central coast, the Buckets Way and Thunderbolts Way. The latter is very picturesque country. Monday night will be in Gloucester - probably rent a house for the night. I had second thoughts doing about this after Mike Hall's death but d...

jcaley

I'm Hopefully this rain will pass and the track will dry out in time for Monday Madison tonight

jcaley

The Planet X pair I bought are cheap and effective - they just cut

jcaley

Terrible news that a rider got killed 6.30am on the Monaro Highway. It has to be Mike Hall.

jcaley

Any dot watchers got an idea when Kristoff will come up the Cooks River Cycle Path?

jcaley

Colin has cancelled juniors training for tonight in view of the storms heading our way

jcaley

Colin has cancelled juniors training for tonight 22/3/2017

jcaley

120 Lapper tonight. No rain - no excuses

jcaley

Haha marc! Not as much as bro on 46/14 on the mad mile. Time for him to move up to U19 gearing

jcaley

Anyone got a new or used 50 tooth 11 speed ultegra chainring they want to sell?

jcaley

We had a dry track for both of the senior sessions this week. You get lucky some times... Ben Lindsay and Lizanne also got the benefit of some motorpacing last night. This coming Monday 20/3 is the 120 lapper again. Hopefully the weather will be kind again.

jcaley

Track is dry.....

jcaley

After riding a not very impressive 2:49 on Tempe to see how I was far off the masters 5 state champiomship times ( 20 seconds from a chance at the podium IMO), I decided to enter anyway. After all Tempe was a bit windy, I had no time trial gear, and it was at the end of a training night. With just 2...

jcaley

Track has almost dried from a brief 6.30 shower. There may be more later though ... so maybe some track for a bit or matbe the whole lot if we get lucky

jcaley

Lindsay is the X factor - being part of the winning team last night as well as last month

jcaley

Madison night tonight - we will train up anyone keen to learn at the start of the night and then you can join in holding hands...

jcaley

Tonight 6 March get your madison jerseys on and bring a spare if you can for matching kit.

jcaley

Yes. And racing is on!

jcaley

120 Lapper this Monday night.

jcaley

A small but quality field raced in two grades with James Fowler flying the flag for Dulwich Hill in A grade and myself and Ben in B grade. I managed third in most races getting chicked by Lizanne in the Sprint heat and the miss and out. Luckily Ben managed to save honour for the club by beating his ...

Tonight, Monday 13 Feb is the last Hurstville Velodrome night of the Monday Twilight Track Series. Racing starts 7pm. Priszes on the night for the wheelraces. If anyone wants a lift to Hurstville call me on 0418262706. John

jcaley

Mon 13/2 there will be no track training at Tempe as we are all invited to the penultimate Twilight track racing night at Hurstville Oval. I hope to see lots of DHBC there.

jcaley

Get out ot dunc and race the Kierens if you possibly can. However, we will still run our training at Tempe.

jcaley

This Monday is Madison night - because we love a Madison. Kudos to Tom and Bro getting some points and finishing the 160 lap State Madison on the same lap as the bunch.

jcaley

If anyone is issued a fine by police for not riding in the separated cycle paths, it would be good to inform Ray Rice at Bicycle NSW info@bicyclensw.org.au Last time the police issued an infringement notice for this type of matter, the person opted to fight the charge in court but the charge was dro...

jcaley

Sometimes stronger riders don't want or need to ride hard. It should be fine for them the ride at the appropriate pace in a slower bunch if they wish. We can always split the bunches if needed to keep them manageable

jcaley

Yes Paul, junior track training started last week.

jcaley

Another great night of track racing with 26 riders across 4 grades. We raced scratch races (derby), Keirens, Miss and out (otherwise know as elimination race) and a 10 lap graded scratch race where B grade had a half lap head start on A grade. Thanks again to Phil Bates for running the night and to ...

Wednesday 25th is the last day to enter the Clarence St Cup to be held at Dunc on 4th February. There's a juniors carnival in the afternoon and seniors in the evening. Enter here

DHBC trackies note that round 4 of the Twilight Track Series Racing replaces training tonight (Monday) at Tempe.

jcaley

This Monday 23 Jan Round 4 of the Monday Twilight Track Series is at the Tempe Velodrome. Sign on 6.30 for 7 start. This one counts towards the series pointscore . Currently Bill Bolton is second in A grade and Rodrigo coming second in B grade. Share the facebook event far and wide. We will have day...

jcaley

One common wisdom is that no useful conversation will ever occur between a person riding a bicycle and the person driving a vehicle in such a situation - despite your rage and the apparant need to inform them about what they have done wrong.

jcaley

This coming Monday night is the first Monday night Marathon 120 lapper (40 km) for the year and hopefully some of our new riders can join us. This is held each third Monday of the Month and is a 120 lap pace-line drill to build track endurance. The main pace-line is likely to travel at around 45 km/...

jcaley

Training is back on track! Ok - terrible pun but there is lots of racing coming up so time to get into training. If you are new to track and/or need a club bike, please arrive as close to 6.30 as possible.

jcaley
