Default Question on ameteur race scene in Melbourne


Unregistered Wrote:
Lap distance is almost exactly 1km. Fastest average speed I've had for
a 45 minute race is about 35 kph which hurt like hell. If you try
riding it solo, remember that in a race you would expect to average
maybe 5kph faster due to drafting and riders taking turns to do the
work.


By the way, racing is in the anti clockwise direction, ie opposite to
normal traffic [of which there is none during a race ]

Also watch out for (ie avoid) any furtive activity in the bushes if you
go there on a non race day - that's a different sort of scene
altogether!

What sort of rules apply in the race?
