INVERLOCH TRAINING CAMPS
These camps are held during April each year and are an eye-opening weekend of road riding action. You will learn to focus on the things that matter as you take on the challenge of the extraordinarily scenic and adventurous terrain of the Strzelecki Ranges. The weekend is specifically designed for advanced beginners thru' to intermediate cyclists (C-D Grade - not elite) and is also suitable for recreational cyclists who are looking to improve their bike skills and handling.
A 5 star training camp staying at the RACV Inverloch Resort, exclusively for SKCC members and limited to 40 people. The camps are run by former Olympian Rob Crowe from Ridewiser Consultancy along with volunteers from the SKCC committee and other experienced SKCC members. This is also a great way for new riders and members to meet other SKCC members who share your passion for cycling!
SKCC ALPINE RIDERS WEEKEND - 2012
Traditionally anyone building strength for the Tour of Bright or the summer racing season uses the Bright training camp as an annual trip to the mountains not to be missed. Over the three days, club riders climb the three major peaks in the Alpine District, Falls, Hotham & Buffalo, a total of 300km.
The rides are all 'out-and-back' routes from the departure point with a daily pre-ride format spelled out by SKCC Olympian and on-road advisor Rob Crowe of Ridewiser.
