Something new ...

... from our friends at the Highwood Cycling Club. Mr. Vansevenant has graciously lent a hand to hold this weeks time trial at Aldersyde, south of town near Okotoks. We'll go at our typical 6:30pm on Wednesday the 14th. Participants should park on the side roads near the start line just east where highway 2 meets highway 7 just before you get to Aldersyde. The route goes out east towards Gladys along 547 for a good 15 km to the finish. After which, you get a nice easy ride back to the start. In a novel twist, we are running two categories, the first being Merckx, and the second full on (legal) TT gear. Your choice. Give er hard.

I'm guessing a few volunteers would be most approciated and we've put in an order for some decent weather.

Parking as Spiro says is on the East side of Hwy 2 and plenty of space either side (N or S) of Hwy 547 on a couple of low traffic secondary roads near start line....but they do access property just keep access clear. Thnks
