Brunswick Cycling Club

The new season of Cycling Sooty Park begins tonight (Thursday 11th) on Channel 31 at 7:30pm, and will feature the Brunswick rollers on their "roller room" segment! More info on the Sooty Park web site.

The Brunswick Cycling Club is pleased to announce our social committee for 2008/2009.

• Phil Bushell
• Damian Hodges
• Omar Ramirez
• Connie Bof
• Tracey Slattery
• Andrea Clarke

These people will be your go-to for good times, so be sure to say hello out on the road or down at the track.

It’s a bit of a drive, but if you want some very good track racing on a Thursday night, get yourself up to the Tom Flood Sports Centre! Bendigo’s weekly club racing is like a mini-carnival and includes scratch races, handicaps, and athletics. The racing is very high quality, the people are fantastic and the atmosphere relaxed.

If anyone is interested in going there’s a semi-regular car pool of Brunswick members that departs DISC at 4pm on a Thursday afternoon, and returns about midnight. Call Nathan on 0404 622 272 or email <social@brunswickcyclingclub.com> for more info.

The Halloween themed Roller Derby #9 got off to a flying start with A-grade rider Darren Rogers the first to qualify. Darren’s time of 8.53s was the best of the night although Philthy, resplendent in a ghoulish green mask and Monkey t-shirt gave it a good crack and came within 0.1s with an 8.63s qualifying 200m time.
