Last Saturday saw the Sprint round of the Club championships as well as the February Enduro.

The forecast was for a hot and windy day and the junior session which was in the afternoon certainly got that!

The 2010 brunswick track championships commenced tuesday night with a BANG – the bang of the starters gun that is – as the first round was the Time Trial.

Rider selections were carefully considered and after some intense people juggling by selection committee: Alf Walker, Walter Dapcich and Philthy Bushell; the teams were formed and the emails sent out. Then the fun began. A few days and a lot of frantic phone calls later the entries were settled and the final teams list was set.

Brunswick CC was represented in almost all categories at the Vic Club Team Track Championships over the weekend of 6-7 Feb at DISC. All of the teams put in a super effort with many teams scoring a place on the podium and a few on the top step to accept the Gold medal as 2010 Victorian Champion Team.

A full report will follow but for now here is a list of Brunswick Cycling Club’s 2010 Victorian Team Track Champions:

Young Brendan Schultz showed his class to win the inaugral Henry Hill Memorial Motor Pace on a Hot Saturday night.

It was a race of attrition as the speed (up to 56kph) and distance took its toll on the field and by the end there were five remaining.

Here is my report of the Victorian Junior Track Championship events over the last 2 weekends from the JM15 point of view.

It all started at Maryborough for my first Christmas carnival this year, I was at a respectable fitness and was racing fairly well but not at peak yet, I only placed once throughout the day.

Last weekend saw the final 4 events of the 2010 Victorian junior Track Championships. I say the last 4 events because the weekend before at the echuca carnival the Scratch race championship was conducted in extreme heat. Thank goodness the weather was milder this weekend for the riders and supporters at DISC.

It was more like being on the Gold Coast – beautiful one-day, perfect the next. A string of stunning days made for a very pleasant Tassie Christmas Carnivals experience for two Brunswick juniors in Bryce Holloway and Riley Hart. Both boys come from good Tassie stock with their respective fathers hailing from downunder downunder, so there was much local support for the boys when they lined up at the Silverdome for the Launceston Carnival. 16 seats two-back from the fence and on the finishing line were filled with Holloway/Hart fans while I was wearing a pushers shirt looking after the boys and generally schmoozing in the infield.
