Southern Cross Cycle Club

If you are planning to enter the Blaney to Bathurst Ride in April, it's time to start training.  Phil is leading (usually from second or third wheel) a training ride every Saturday, departing at  6.30am from Waratah Park, Sutherland.  The rides travel south towards Helensburgh and return.  Keener riders continue on to Sublime Point but if your short of time, you can turn back at Waterfall.  Riding will be on public roads and suitable for experienced riders only.  Children must be accompanied by a parent.

Stuart O'Grady an Olympic Gold medalist and winner of multiple stages of the Tour de France takes time out to sign the AIS shirt of a very young Jack at the 2008 Cronulla International Criterions.  Like Jack, Stuart comes from a family with proven cycling credentials.  The sky is the limit for you Jack!

The question is....  How old was Jack when this photo was taken? If you think you know, answer the Poll below.

Thank you to all racers, handlers, officials and club helpers for such a great race meet.  Whilst the day started with black clouds overhead we managed to transition smoothly from the Tempe Velodrome to Dunc Gray Velodrome with minimal delay to the race program.  Thank you all for your co-operation. 

This race event was a first at Dunc Gray for some of the junior riders and whilst this would have been daunting, they rose to the challenge to put on a demonstration of great racing from the U9's to U17's. 

Results are available on the cycling NSW web site or click here.  Keep an eye on this web page for photos of the event.

Who is Southern Cross Cycle Club?

Southern Cross Cycle Club was established to provide skills development and a safe racing environment for junior cyclists in the Sutherland Shire.

The Southern Cross Cycle Club races and trains at Waratah Park, an off road racing circuit closed to traffic, that provides a safe racing environment.

The Club’s focus is on promoting junior racing but we welcome members of all ages.

The Club places a strong emphasis on junior development and provides opportunities for all junior members to develop their cycling skills.

The majority of junior racing is graded by ability, giving newcomers the opportunity to race at their development and skill level.
