2021-22 Zero Friction Time Trials

For the 14th year running, PACC will host its series of time trials at Outer Harbor this summer.

Time Trials – the race of truth for those who push themselves to the limit, but also a great way for new riders to get to know racing in a friendly environment, where you don’t have to worry about being part of a bunch.

Junior Riders

Parents are asked to be familiar with the AusCycling Junior Policy, particularly in regard to equipment and race distance: https://assets.auscycling.org.au/s3fs-public/2021-07/junior-riding-up-policy-_-final.pdf?_ACahJMSeK9EhpCIL_FFZgf0dE71MUrS=

A modified course will be available for Junior Riders based on AusCycling's Junior Policy. Assistance will be required from parents / carers to allow this to occur. Please email secretary@pacc.org.au with rider details (name and category) and acknowledgement of information re junior riders prior to registering.

U13 and U15 - 8km - sign on at the Osborne Skate Park then make your way to the alternate start point at the roundabout at Harrold Street and Lady Gowrie Drive. Note that this will take time, so sign on early and meet the Commissaire at the start line. Parents are welcome (encouraged) to follow riders on bike. A Commissaire will follow the final rider by vehicle for the duration of the event.

U17 riders - PACC has been granted an exemption for U17 riders to ride the full distance. No riding up waivers are required.

Parents - please read above and email before registering your junior rider!
