Dej said:

gday,
its kinda raining off and on out here in clayton..
anyone know what the usual situation is with the crits when the weather is
kinda dodgy?
do they still hold it or is it called off?
i'm looking forward to racing tonight..not looking forward to taking that
hairpin on a wet road tho🙂

its dry in north boring now. just come back from doing the BR by car. the smiths Gully shop has opened/expanded to a bigger area with fireplace and cafe and a good gaggia!!!
The weather here is looking on the up, so Im thinkin I'll go down to Kew and do a few laps and see how hairy that corner is. Im guessin if it dont rain anymore it could well be dry by start time 😉

I might be doing some hill sprints over that way. I don't
actually know the course so I might check it out while I'm
there. Hope my hill isn't part of the course! ;-)

Yeah, I think the road will be dry. Showers have cleared. Looking at the weather radar http://mirror.bom.gov.au/products/IDR023.loop.shtml#image it looks like it's going to stay dry now. I drove in today so I won't be there. Have fun.

ahh cool🙂
I can see the BR turning into a 8 hour event with stops to sample all the
outer north-eastern bakerys / coffee shops fairly soon🙂
if your ever in camberwell on a weekday / sat morning / afternoon, stop by
coffee max (near links cycles) and try a coffee..it's the best coffee ive
ever had.
