In conjunction with UGLY RACING, the minds of ex-messengers and *TC, fyxomatosis hosts the 4th annual Melburn Roobaix.

Went along last year and had a great time on the cobbles, followed by a few beers at the Lomond.

The Urban Classic

Labour Day or Labor Day is an annual holiday celebrated all over the world that resulted from the labour union movement, to celebrate the economic and social achievements of workers. The majority of countries celebrate Labour Day on May 1, and it is popularly known as May Day and International Workers' Day.

The celebration of Labour Day has its origins in the Eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest.

Rest?

Tuesday Night Dirt Crits

The Tuesday Night Dirt Crits at the Ivanhoe jumps surfaced just after Christmas for a five race season.

Two great years run by Deluxe MTB Club (thanks a bunch Malachi for your organization and resilience) finished with last year’s cup race.

A couple of locals decided too much fun is never enough – hence the resurrection. The course remained the same but A, B and women’s grades were run. A full range of weather was also available this year. Prizes were the old FTF ‘tube’ format.

The grand finale had a bonanza $100 cash prize for A grade.

Fox jersey (which Erica said fitted!) for women.

Maxis tires for B grade

And plenty of spot prizes etc, everyone a winner!

New Season later in the year check out dates on:
