The Randwick Botany Cycling Club is one of the oldest clubs in
Australia having been affiliated with the then, Cycling Union, in 1903. In 2003
we celebrated our Centenary year with our
Centenary Race day and Mega Dinner party. A strong social theme exists
between our considerable members. Year 2003 saw our membership swell beyond 150
members. We have a new major sponsor for 2010, being Brennan IT. Our
membership has exceeded expectations and has swelled in excess of 250 members as
of March 2010. We are very lucky in that we are one of only a few clubs with
our own clubhouse. The clubhouse consists of an administration area, kiosk,
showers, toilets and shower facilities. The clubhouse assists in facilitating
the great social atmosphere of the club and the great rapport and comradeship
between the club members. It is great to sit down after racing amongst friends,
enjoying a tea or coffee and a sandwich perhaps, and regaling friends with the
highlights of the race. Sometimes such stories seem more exciting than the Tour
De France (especially from the story teller's perspective).
The kiosk is well
stocked with everything from tea and coffee to soft drinks, sports drinks & ice
creams and a range of food from basic confectionary to fresh sandwiches. Every
now and then we even put on a barbeque.
The club caters for
all types of rider from the social rider through to the serious racer. We
conduct training
rides, fun events, individual & team time trial events, hill climbs,
criterium and road racing events (click
here for more details). Racing is conducted on the
Heffron Park criterium
circuit every Saturday throughout the year in a safe and friendly
environment. To ensure your safety we have marshals situated around the course
who are in contact via two way radio. St John Ambulance personnel are on hand
every week also.
2010 sees us with a very young but blossoming
Junior membership, The club has produced, International professional riders,
World and Olympic champions. We have 2 current UCI World Masters track
champions in the club.
