Cyclo Sportif - Kalamunda 2015

March 08 2015

   

The Royal Hutt River Silvertails had it's Development Squad out today to compete in the
BWA Kalamunda 100.

The team competed in the C distance of 68km through the Kalamunda hills
as the team was made up of a group of youngsters out for the first time.
At over 1000m of climbing, it was still a hard day out for them.

The RHR Silvertails came 2nd in the C Distance.

With 9 teams all up in the C distance event it was an excellent result for the "Young Guns".
It certainly served as a great introduction to the sport for our new young members and will no doubt give them a confidence boost ready as they prepare for the next event.   .

 

Report from the finish line!

The newly formed "Development Squad" of the RHR Silvertails enrolled in the "C" Division of the Kalamunda 100 - the warm up event for the upcoming Dams Challenge. All acquitted themselves extremely well, although a bit of whinging was heard during the course of the event. At 68km and 1100m of climbing it was the longest that Grace, Alex or Brendon had ridden before - but still short of the 145km that Grace has signed up for the 3 Dams Challenge in April.

The team even managed to pull out a 2nd place in their division - with an average speed that beat quite a few of the teams in the longer distances.

We hope to see the Development Squad out again at subsequent Cyclos.
Next step for Grace however is the 3 Dams. 145km and 1800m of climbing.
