End of Year Charity Race
Oakwood Rd (8/12)
Entries are open for this Sunday’s Charity Race on the Oakwood Road in Balhannah (Sunday 8 December). Entries will be donated to a local charity, so come along and race for a good cause!
******We will be putting on a sausage sizzle after the race, so be sure to hang around and join in the fun!******
Oakwood Road is another classic course featuring a number of short, sharp climbs that in isolation aren’t much to write home about, but when strung together in a race get significantly more difficult as each lap passes.
Add to that a number of enjoyable descents, the course makes for a great morning of racing.
If you haven’t raced before or aren’t familiar with the lingo, a Kermesse is a graded race on a short course (typically less than 10km) and can be thought of something in between a criterium and road race. For our purposes and without getting too complicated, it’s a road race on a short course. So while the distances are similar to our road races, you just do more laps.
– Entry is $25 (+ transponder hire), with proceeds being donated to a local charity
– We have grades for all abilities and skill levels, from the incredibly fast to the not-so-fast. All welcome.
– Short course (G Grade) option is now available.
– Free trial races are available.
– You don’t need to be an AHCC member to race with us, just an AusCycling license holder.
