Re: Tour Down Under 2017
Just noticed a post on FB by the Port Adelaide CC vice prez that was suggesting that there will be a Roller Frenzy held on the TDU Tuesday night. If you're looking for entertainment, this might fit the bill! Stay tuned

Cant wait. Work is pissing me the fuck off. And I havent had as much bike time thanks to a saddle sore, so the ride like crazy ride will be a challenge.

Re: Tour Down Under 2017
I (and my family) will be watching at the Inman Valley Rd, Armstrong Rd, Maude St (etc.) intersection round-about. It's a great place to watch the riders race through the round-about on the way in for the first time, and then watch them come racing around the corner when they do their circuits.
Sorry norbs, I checked, I didn't bring a spare hat. :-(

Here's a few highlights from my afternoon watching people sweat.
Please be kind when critiquing, these shots were all taken with a Samsung Galaxy S6.

Re: Tour Down Under 2017
Great shots everyone !
My shots for the Classic and Stage 1 were taken with my Pentax K1, while Stage 2 shots were taken with my trusty point and shoot (Canon A590).
Listening to the thunder outside, I think we're in for a damp night. Might be interesting for the Challenge Tour riders in the morning.
