New race results system is up and running!
Monday, April 16, 2012

The Vikings club now has a database for all race results. This will allow members to easily search through race results from past and present. Eventually we will be migrating the entire calendar over to this system so that all the race information is available in one easily update-able place. We sincerely thank club captain and handicapper Chris Drew for his efforts and time in setting up this great system.

2012 Stockinbingal Fair Handicap Report by Andy Collins
Saturday, April 14, 2012

By Andy '_ABC_' Collins
No, not that kind of Stock Report. A report from the 2012 Stockinbingal Fair Handicap Race:

The Stockinbingal Fair was a triumph for the Vikings in a display of hard work and team spirit which kept the 7 minute bunch pushing hard all the way to the end. The 7 minute bunch started with Brad Drew, Andrew Thaller, Alex Cooke, Rob Fisher, Tim Ainge, Adam Ballantyne and myself. A few minutes up the road were Matt Burgess and Steven Callahan with another limit bunch ahead of them. With the display of very expensive bikes and exceedingly fit looking guys behind us we knew that we would be up against it.

The 7 minute bunch left with around 15-20 riders to start with and immediately Tim and myself got to the front to set the tone for the race with a fast start around 40km/h. We swapped off a few turns but the paceline didn't immediately kick in. After a few words of encouragement from the back I realised that the paceline had to be initiated from 2nd wheel so I came around Tim again and we were off and rolling. The hammer was down up the very slight gradient into a pretty decent crosswind and riders were dangling off the back pretty early in the piece. My heart rate barely dipped below my max heart rate zone of 191 for the first 9km until the first turn! Rob was popped by then along with plenty of others and there were several times along that section that I thought there was no way we could keep this up, or certainly not with me still in the group.

We turned left at the 9km mark and straight into a block headwind and some rolling terrain. The paceline was still working well though there were a few riders that were a little sketchy and clearly at their limit. At least into a headwind it gave us a decent place to hide and recover for a bit. It was along this next 10km where I took a few breaks from the paceline at the back letting 3 or 4 riders come through before taking anther turn figuring that the group would do better with me pulling turns every now and then and staying attached than pulling turns until I went nuclear. Brad, Andrew, Adam and Tim were pulling like sled dogs every time they got near the front with no sign of slowing. The last 3km of this section was up a 3% gradient hill where the pace slowed a little but not for lack of trying. Brad took offence 2/3 of the way up that there were hangers on at the back of our group so pushed ahead and tried to drop them. He only succeeded in showing some impressive power by riding away from the entire bunch! When he turned around to see daylight behind him and a group of riders with their eyes popping out he sat up and waited for us - thanks Brad.

3% gradient may not sound like much, but with a determined group and a decent tailwind it was hang on to your hats stuff on the way back down the hill! We saw that there were a few groups heading up the hill after us so we knew we needed to absolutely drill it on this next section. I spun out to 78km/h and if I wasn't breathing so hard I would have had a grin from ear to ear! By the time we got back to the original turn at about 28km race distance we caught the limit bunch and had our noses at the head of the race.

The next 9km was new to this year's course and we didn't know what to expect or how far it would go. We still had a tail/crosswind and were rolling turns with a few of the previous bunch who had managed to tack on. Team QUON's Dominator obviously hadn't read the play book for handicaps and attacked the bunch on this section only to be caught fairly quickly and then spat out the back. We arrived at the turn and only realised that it was the turn because there was a guy with a lollipop standing there - no cone to go around, so I made the executive decision to turn and pull the bunch back into the headwind. The chasing groups were a little closer this time when we passed them, but we still had enough of a gap to feel a little confident. The group of riders that were pulling turns kept whittling down but Brad, Andrew, Tim and myself were solid and pulling strong smooth turns at the front with a few riders from Wagga riders and one from CCC. When we got to the last turn I had a look back and surprisingly saw daylight behind us, and what seemed like about 20 riders hanging in behind our paceline group. We might just make it.

We were off like scalded cats on the home stretch with a right hand crosswind and the slightest hint of a tailwind and downhill. The paceline established itself in the correct rotation which was opposite to how the rest of the race had transpired and we passed Rob who was making his way back and offered some Presidential words of encouragement from the side of the road. The four Vikings Speedshop riders were constantly within the driving paceline as more and more riders elected to hang on rather than pull turns. Brad was still obviously super strong, Tim and Andrew were pulling through like it was still the start of the race and strangely I felt less and less knackered the further we went and more confident that the team would get a good result. We had a few cars go past us with thumbs up and a ute driver trying to tell us how far in front of the chasers we were. Personally, I couldn't hear a thing.

Shortly after we passed the 1km to go mark, the paceline rolling all of a sudden stopped as everyone came to the realisation that we could see the finish! As luck would have it, I was on the wheel of our very own Cancellara/Renshaw power machine Brad in 3rd wheel. A quick glance behind me and I saw that I had either Tim or Andrew on my wheel and knew that if Brad didn't take it and I faded that whoever that was would get to the end. We had another rider come up and squeeze in front of Brad but we could tell that he had gone too early and didn't have the pace needed. Brad had to back off slightly to get around him and with a bit over 500m to go he pulled out and lit the afterburners. Thankfully I saw him about to wind up and could go with the move. With 200m to go I leapt off Brad's wheel, immediately thought 'oh crap, I've gone too early' but spun my legs as fast as I could for as long as I could and managed to keep them going all the way to the line for a great team victory!

Brad came through and finished 2nd, Tim came across in 5th and Andrew finished 9th! Thanks to all the guys who came out to the race. It was a very proud moment talking to the TV sports reporter when I could thank you all for the great job you all did.

FYI - Stuart Shaw from Drapac set a course record of 1hr 7min which was just over 5 minutes quicker than our bunch.

Vikings results:
Andy Collins (1st place)
Brad Drew (2nd place, Sprint winner)
Tim Ainge (5th place)
Andrew Thaller (9th place)

Goulburn Track Open (7 Jan 2012) Junior (U9-U15) Race Report
Tuesday, January 10, 2012

On 7 Jan the ACT juniors competed in the Goulburn Track Open. We had 2 JM15, 2 JW15, 4 JB13, 1 JG13 and 1 U11. Many of our riders are from the Junior Development Program and this was their first race. The U17s raced during the senior program later in the evening.

The usual pre-race chaos ensued trying to organise roll-outs, setting up the gazebo and ensuring all are registered and ready to race. Our first rider out on Seiffert Oval was Mitchell Fowler (U11) racing in a field of 14 riders. It took 2 events for little Mitchell to find his legs and came out strong finishing third in the U11 Boys’ Derby. The cheers could be heard across the oval from the ACT camp. It is important to note that Mitchell’s bike was at least a metre under rollout.

Kayla Stevenson (JG13) dominated her field of 7 riders. She consistently pulled a placing for all her events, coming first in the U13 Girls Heart Starter and U13 Girls Scratch, third in the Handicap and second in the Elimination. Well done Kayla!

The JB13 field was split into A and B grade, where we had Johannes Beitzel in A grade and the other Canberra boys racing together in B grade. Johannes pulled a good effort with his cohort after a number of weeks off due to illness, consistently of placing fifth in all his events.

In the JB13 B grade, the field was dominated by Mackenzie Edwardson and Matthew Rice. Both of them were out fighting for the first placing in all the events. Mackenzie came first in the U13 Boys B Heart Starter passing Matthew who was doing all the work in front until the last half lap where he accidently unclipped his pedal. However, Matthew came out stronger in the Elimination by coming first, pedalling away from Mackenzie in the last lap. And the last event (5 lap Scratch race) we saw Mackenzie claiming first place by sprinting down Matthew from the 50m mark. The Canberra camp went wild as we are cheering for both our boys.

The most remarkable rider was U13B first timer Nicholas Short. Nicholas is new to racing and new to riding a track bike. He was the CCC – Canberra Times “Cadel Evans” competition winner few months back and received a free spot in our Junior Development Program. He was on a club loan bike which was at least 20cms under roll-out; however his perseverance and determination paid off as he completed all the events, with an impressive ride on the Elimination event.

Emeliha Jermyn and Gabrielle Millan represented CCC in the JW15 B grade within a field of six riders. It is the first time these girls are racing on their track bike outside Canberra and their performances improved progressively in every event. Emeliha came through placing third in the U15 Women B Grade Heart Starter. Gabrielle rode confidently in her last two races (Elimination and Scratch) placing first in the field. Congratulation girls!

And finally our U15 boys, Tom Peel and Tom Chester were placed in the JM15 B grade within a field of 9 riders. It was easier for the Canberra cheer squad as all our riders had the same first name. Tom Peel rode strong in his first race (U15 Men B Heart Starter), placing second overall. However, Tom Chester came back stronger riding in his very fashionable long footy socks, in his last two races (Elimination and Scratch) placing second and third respectively.

It was a lovely racing afternoon and the Canberra Juniors are ready to go for it again at Wagga next month.

-Second Sunday of each month
-9am start to allow travel
-Courses approx 45-60km
-ACT races moderate hills, Goulburn races flat
-A – F grades at every race

  • Race 1 (ACT) 15th Jan: Uriarra Homestead, 3 laps for 60 km
  • Race 2 (Goulburn), 12th Feb: Breadalbane, 45 km

  • Race 4 (Goulburn), 8th Apr: Windellama (TBC)
CCC will be also be running fortnightly road races on local courses with a variety of formats. So with the VCC/GCC events, CCC road races and evening criterium and track events each week, there should be plenty of races and plenty of variety to keep everyone out of trouble.

There will be separate results for each grade, even though some grades will be racing together as one bunch.

There will be an ongoing pointscore series for each half of the season. The pointscore will be restarted on 5 January. Pointscore winners will be awarded on 22 December and 22 March. Details to be announced soon.

Every week, there will be prizes for the winners of each grade.

Race entry is $5. A Season-entry will be available for the first half of the season for $40 for 10 races. A Season-entry will be available for the second half of the season for $50 for 12 races.

Course direction will alternate clockwise and anti-clockwise.

Grading and promotions are at the Race Director's discretion.

Each race will be starting exactly on time. If you are late, you miss out.
