Peter, I have a bunch of new riders using loaner bikes this week. Be sure to bring it on Friday with a for sale sign on it. They will no doubt be keen to upgrade.

This week’s Races
•   Round 1   Warm up Scratch
•   Round 2   no feature race this week!
•   Round 3  Sprint  (10 up over 5 laps)  
•   Round 4  Pointá’Lap    
•   Round 5 Combines + CNSW Time Blaster” (Time Blaster time is 8:45 sec for $100)

Explain these races
10 up Sprint   Like a  Half Field scratch/sprint  Your Division will be split into two heats. So if there are 18 riders in div 2 there will be two heats each containing 9 riders. The race is run under standard scratch race rules. At only 1.25km in length this race is considered more like a sprint than a scratch race.

Point’a ‘lap-  The race is run similar to a point score-however each lap is a sprint for first place only and worth one point. The overall winner is the rider with the most points.

Personally, I wouldn't feel comfortable wearing rainbow colours without earning them.

I have no issue with Crafty holding a rainbow coloured microphone. -Keep up the good work!

I suppose it's a bit like the gay marriage debate really, heterosexual couples feeling like allowing gays to marry will somehow diminish the hetero marriage.
Surely if the UCI sell replica world champs gear in XXXL for fat blokes like me to wear they are saying that the logo is nothing more than a marketing tool to them.
What about bike manufacturers or wheel makers that use the world champ colours, are we to believe that they are respecting the colours or that the world champ being on their bike was a large part of the reason they won. Even if this were true surely Crafty has had a hand in getting enough young folk to the world champs he would have nearly as much right as specialized to use it.

BTW I respect the effort of everyone who earns the right to wear the rainbow stripes.

UCI should not allow replica jersey and for those who wear them have absolutely no respect for those who have earned them and will never have the ability to achieve such success.
If the UCI logo was somewhere with old RAW logo there would be no discussion, a logo is a logo, but once you start using world bands outside the logo it is wrong, that is the highest achievement within cycling and if some of you do not understand that, you have no understanding of cycling at all.
And by the way, I am not a world champion, but I respect the sport and what riders have to go through, their talent and ability to be World Champions.

When the UCI stops selling replica WC jerseys then I will object to it.... so relax people know who has earned em and who hasnt.

I think it looks great and very slick. Babici is great stuff and great to see the owner of the business racing last night.

they must be pretty fickle then. maybe paul could ask a few of them next week and see ?
the football using their premiership trophy in their advertising and merchandise, americas cup teams and sailors  are plaster with images of their cup. kids can wear their teams jerseys to support them, be it football, cycling etc etc.
cyclists and their silly 'rules' dont benefit the sports overall public appearance sometimes.
just my thoughts..

i like the logo.
and my helmet and rims have small rainbow bits on them that i didnt earn ( or put there myself) and i suspect no one has taken offense...
