Metropolitan Champs…Tough Racing…Tender Food…and a nip in the air!!!

C. McFarlane, May 21st, 2013

The 2013 Metropolitan Road Championships were conducted on Saturday with 25 Brunswick riders making the short trip north to Harcourt.

Harcourt is at the base of Mt Alexander and is Victorias Apple Capital and conditions were very chilly with a slight breeze.

The Castlemaine Club  puts on a great show with solid courses and a great selection of home cooked meals to provide those important carbs for the race.

It’s a big weekend with the metropolitan clubs racing on Saturday followed by the country clubs on Sunday and being 9 weeks into the Winter season affords the smart competitor an insight into how their season is going., being a third of the way in you certainly don’t want to have peaked too early that’s for sure!
