How exciting! The first open of the 2010 Road Season is nearly upon us. The Orica Kermesse is a very handy open and it is encouraged CCCC support one of our neighbour clubs as we would expect their support. Being the first open of the season it is ideally located within an hour so if your legs arnt where you want them to be this early in the season you have not wasted $$ on accommodation/travel and only have to sulk for a short way home. Use this thread to organise car pooling logistics. Enter via CNSW website before March 14. See you all up there. http://www.nsw.cycling.org.au/cy_nsw/races/?f=2010/10074/10074.htm

No hills, one little rise, silky smooth roads (not) may be a good race to take the spare bike to race on

Flat but rough surface = hard on tyres and nether regions. I flatted 20 seconds into my first race there. Pays to have your wheels/tyres in tip-top condition.
