There will be a new course for the VC St Raphael/Waite Contracts hard riders time trial on February 19 (2017)
News: VC St Raphael Hard Riders
When: 19th February 2017
Velo Club St Raphael/Waite Contracts have decided to raise the bar for 2017 after a succesful event in 2016. So for 2017 they have created a new Hard Riders course to mix things up a little.
Some people call it the Hell of the South but after riding it, it’s been nicknamed “The Pain on Portsdown Hillâ€. It is slightly longer than this year’s event but also tougher. There will also be a prize for (Gran Premio Della Montagna or for Strava Fans KOM) at the 4.5 mile marker but the prize will only be awarded if you complete the full course.
The event will consist of two categories; Time Trial and Road bike categories and the organiser is reaching out to the roadies of the world to come and see how you fair against some of the best Testers in the South DC area and possibly further afield.
The event has good prizes, is well marshalled and another course record is up for grabs but best of all loads of cake …
Feel free to train on this course and see you on the 19th February 2017
