Hi all

For the TOG, we have two important things to raise with you all.

  • First, is safety and when we have bunches of up to 24 riders pumping it around open roads, we need to know that riders have experience at this sort of racing. All it takes is one bad move in the pack and a lot of riders can come down.
  • Second, we need to have a reasonable basis to be able to grade riders to ensure we are fair to everyone else.

 

For these reasons, there are two things to cover off when getting your teams together

  • First: if anyone is using an “event licence” option, we will need to see evidence of having done at least 2 races over the last 12 months. This can be done now by setting up an AusCycling Trial Membership and then do our AHCC races on 10 Jan and 7 Feb, the Norwood Crits, or any other road/crits races on the AusC calendar over the 4-week period the trial membership covers, to get this experience. Racing with either of the two AVCC clubs (SVCC and AMCC) counts as the needed 2 races.
  • Next: if you have a current AusCycling licence, we need to know that you have done at least 2 races in the last 12 months under CA, the AVCC, or AusCycling.
