Some BCC crew will be heading up to Nannup on Sunday to spectate the Gravel World Champs from the Adina Farm fan zone and then the finish line.
Very lucky to have world class racing so close to home! Hope to see you out there! 🚴 🌲

W.O.W. 😍

Adina Fan Zone from the sky is simply stunning.

Awesome turnout for the return of the Hoppy Memorial Challenge! 💥🚴‍♀️🚴☕️
Everyone started off at a blistering pace enjoying the gentle downhill of Jalbaragup Rd, but after the tight bend onto Chapman Hill Rd it became more of a road race with some big pelotons spotted on the foothills of the iconic Chapman Hill climb
Congratulations to Helen Morgan & Scott Smail for fastest female & male on the day 🏆
Great to see so many roadies and triathletes giving it a crack and doing what we all love!

Chapman Hill ride is on tomorrow! 🚴 🚴‍♀️ 🚴‍♂️
There will be an A & B group on the return to cater for everyone
Please have a read of the below Group Riding Etiquette info. Particularly noting that BCC are now trialling “forward rolling” when riding 2 abreast.

GENERAL RIDING
● Riders should pair off 2 by 2
● Try to maintain about a 30-50cm distance from the rear wheel of the rider in front of you. A larger gap is advisable in dark or wet conditions.
● Keep your handlebars level with those of the rider next to you
● Ride at an even steady pace
● Close up gaps between riders as quickly and smoothly as possible
● When possible ride at least 1/2 metre clear from the gutters and 1m from parked cars
● Lead riders should always indicate turns, point and call out all hazards and following riders must pass it back down the group.

PAIRED UP GROUP RIDING- ROLLING FORWARD
● When either of the front two riders need a rest they should give the call “rolling”.
● The riders on the inside (left) maintain their current speed while the riders on the outside (right) increase the pace sufficiently for the front rider to pull forward and in front of the rider to his/her immediate left then ease back slightly to the group speed. The outside (right) line continues to move forward until two fresh riders are at the front.
● The last rider on the inside (left) will move across to the outside (right) and call “last wheel” as they move forward.
● Enjoy your “rest” when on the left/inside line.
● Riders not confident or comfortable of keeping up with the roll through should stay just off the back and clearly call ‘jump in’ to let other riders know you are not rolling through.

SINGLE FILE- ROLLING BACK RIDING
Often on a faster ride or on narrow roads the call may be made to ride single file for speed and or safety reasons.
● When the lead rider needs a rest they should check for traffic then flick their elbow before moving carefully out to the side the wind is coming from and soft pedal as the line moves up, then rejoin at the back.
● As the rider nears the back of the line the last rider calls “last wheel”.
● The last rider should also pay attention to vehicles approaching from behind and call ‘car back’ as required.

Nice to catch up for dinner before being inspired by the short films at the Big Bike Film Night! 🚴‍♀️
