Sydney is a city where the salt spray of the Tasman meets the calm of the harbour. This deeply marine geography has developed a glistening, modern shoreline over the decades, where the slick greys of the CBD give way to the vibrant blues of the Pacific.
“There’s nothing quite like those weeks just after daylight savings ends: the coast road quiet, the sun still low over the water, many worlds in a single morning.” - Sophie Titmarsh.

Ten hours, eight minutes, and fifty-seven seconds.
That’s how long it took for @tasman_nan , to ride the 206km Victorian Goldfields Track, setting the Fastest Known Time for the route. However, the real motivation behind this FKT effort was to raise money for his local MTB Park: @lalarrbagauwamtb_official .
“When the fires hit the Harcourt region in January this year, I wanted to do something that could highlight the area and get people back to it. So, I thought, let’s do my local, the Goldfields Track, and do it all in one hit, unsupported, linking up all the good stuff from start to finish, something almost no one has done.”

From RAPHA201 to pinning a number, @knowabennett shared his experience with our race foundations programme:
“Thanks to RCC, I arrived at the start line surrounded by familiar faces. I got to ride the circuit with professional racers, and got some pointers on how the race would likely unfold. The practical guidance they gave on fundamentals like cornering, energy management and bunch positioning made me much more comfortable on the start line and gave me plenty of (cough – false - cough) confidence.
In the following session, we went deeper into effort management through pedalling cadence, learning how different cadences draw on different energy systems - something I’d never even considered myself.
The highlight of both sessions for me was actually not the racing, but getting to sit and casually talk over the race with Scott or Angus afterwards. Both were extremely generous with their experience and learnings, and got me super excited to race more and try out new strategies.
Thanks to Rapha’s 201 sessions I now have the confidence to sign up for a race, get myself to the start line, and ride in the bunch with commitment. Now it’s time to learn how to be there at the end when it matters most!”
Our next RAPHA201 Crit Foundations sessions is this Sunday, led by @nationsnumber1bloke . Find out more via the RCC App.
