TPR #2 - Tuesday 24th 6:45am

Rides
1

SIGN UP so I can split you up into FAIR teams! We had an awesome turn out last week.

Meet at hairpin turn at Circuit Jacque Villeneuve at 6:45am or the gates at 6:20am

We do a warmup lap then we race for two lap intervals, after which we REGROUP before starting again. We do this three times for a total of six laps raced. We end in time to get back for 8:35 classes.

Points are collected as follows:

1pt for the team that takes intermediate sprint on lap 1
3pts for the team that takes the finish line on lap 1
5pts for the final sprint at the end of lap 2
1pt for second place at the end of lap 2

The other two categories suck lol

I always find it weird how most of MCT feels compelled to offer three signup options for every ride…

4

because Mike is a jerk we now have 3 new categories

5

The heat is on

6

The heat IS on, and that’s why I’ll be in bed tomorrow morning.

Right Dhruv, that’s the reason…

i have two comments about last week :

  1. i think we can dispense with the warm-up lap. If anything it’s more of a cool down anyways, after hammering to get to hairpin, and it took about 10 precious minutes to complete the warm-up…

  2. There seemed to be some confusion about where the regroup was. The fast boys just rolled on through and eventually waited at the hairpin bend for 5 min, before going back to the finish. I think those who sprint over the line first should simply u-turn and wait for the others, and then get going again right away

… I was very late for work and didn’t even do the 3rd round

I agree we can probably live without the warm up lap. We definitely will try and regroup after reach round faster than last week. There were a lot of people, many whom were new, so it’s not surprising it took a bit longer.

On another note SIGN UP, teams will be posted around 9!

10

I will have to bail on 3rd round, unless we make this 6:30@ hairpin? Opinion?

11

I should have another friend coming too.

12

Sorry Mat I think we will keep the start at 6:45am.

Can I ask everyone to remember what team you are on to avoid some of the confusion we experienced last week. Also as noted above we will not be doing the warm up lap so as to end a little earlier. Without further ado here are this weeks teams:

Team ONE:

14

Meant to sign up earlier. Don’t mind going solo to not mess anything up…

15

Hey wait i’ll be there too! i’ll always show up to TPR! did anyone talk about the intermediate sprint line ? i dont like it, especially since i crashed by myself in the “slight” turn… So there is a …how does it call… something… une genre d’arche pour mettre des commanditaire… tsé le cossin en métal là! Bon… i think the intermediate sprint line should be under that thing, just a little after the “slight” turn

16

Yah, agree with M-S.

17

Dustin, I can’t make it anymore. Take my spot on Team 2.

18

DEAL! I get Dustin.

19

Fine but he needs to start every sprint from 1km out

20

Have to bail: too much work and no red bibs. Have a great ride!
