Date: Thursday, August 24th Location: Crowsfoot Start Time: 7:00pm (Registration 6:30pm with Kevin S).

Approximate Distance: 13.8km
Route:
Crowsfoot…This course has been a longstanding WCC tradition that has been in use since the early 70’s. It is just under 14km, flat and very fast with a slight downhill to start and uphill to challenge you at the finish.
Description:
All ability levels are welcome. Any bike type is welcome as well (no e-Bikes). People have raced on road, TT, cross/gravel, MTB’s, hand cycles etc.
There are two categories “Aero” and “Road Bike”:
Aero:
Anything goes (No UCI restrictions)
Road:
No clip on aerobars, no invisible aerobars/hands draped over the tops, no TT disc rear wheels, no TT specific helmet, (Aero road helmets are fine, skin suits are fine).
All bike types are welcome. If you have clip on aerobars or want to use invisible aerobars / hands draped over the tops on your road bike you can participate, you’ll just be slotted into the aero category.
If you have specific questions prior to your ride please ask here.
Good morning all,
It’s looking more likely that we will be getting that storm and will need to postpone or cancel this TT. The forecast is 100% chance of rain during the TT …and the radar has it looking like a very sharp line - which means strong winds, cold and a high probability of lightning. I think it best to call it early and let people get out early in the afternoon for a ride before the storm hits.
Chris and I will discuss postponing until next week.
All that are going or interested, please indicate your expected finish time so that I may place you appropriately in the start list. I look forward to timing you in your attempt to better your times.
I know it’s last minute… but I’m thinking if we could start at 6:30 we would miss the rain. I will be on site – so if you want to come early and do your effort to avoid the possible rain - show up and I will time you. Otherwise we will start everyone at 7:00 – or earlier if everyone is there… to try to stay out of any possible thunder showers.
