July 2024 - Breakdown of Club Executive
Jul 26, 2024 - Gavin
Hey all, we haven't had any discussion on a meeting when I'm home next, How I see it, as it stands Bathurst wallabies are going to struggle to deliver this season and beyond.
1. Claire has stood down as treasurer as of the AGM.
2. I have stood down as president.
3. The last meeting had only 5 attended.
I know everyone is extremely busy but I think we do need to meet up whilst I'm back next or the club can meet whenever.
If we have no direction moving forward then I will have to notify tri NSW that Bathurst wallabies will not be running rounds this season and that is the last thing I want to see.
If anyone knows of anyone who would like to join the committee, Then invite them in as this committee is filled with amazing people but we do just need to make some decisions.
I am home from the 10th august then leave again the 19th. (I'm unavailable the 11th).

Jul 26, 2024 - Jessie-Rose
In light of some of our most loyal and giving committee members stepping down due to personal reasons, Bathurst Wallabies need YOU! Without more committee members, we fear that we will be unable to carry out our 2024/2025 season. Our current committee is friendly, helpful, passionate about our sport and are just all-round legends. If you have some time to offer, no matter how small, we would appreciate it.
We will meet on August 17th at 4pm at the Clubhouse to discuss the upcoming season in the hope that we can work together to make it go ahead. Please join us and be part of your favourite sporting community in Bathurst
We acknowledge the outgoing committee members for the valued contributions they’ve made to our community and thank them for their ongoing guidance as we look to fill their very big shoes.

Sun, Jul 28 - Mark Windsor -- Re Special Meeting on 17 Aug 2024
To Claire & existing Executive --
Discussion - Gav I could fill in Pro-Term as president till he returns/or when the meeting sets new officials (including their responsibilities and duties).
Couple of things –
1 if someone else would like to do the Presidents Role Pro-term (ie until the club formally appoints someone) let me know urgently. (let say by Sunday Night).
2 if anyone can assist with the Treasurer role pro-term again let me know
3 Will chase up the issues minuted at meetings in June & July.. check progress
4 Now sorry I am not that good or connectable on Facebook & Messenger..
5 I guess this Will/Could mean a review and update of the FaceBook Site as the Management control site for the Club.
6 Been chasing up the Tri Clubs constitution details – does seem to by ModelRules but is anyone aware of any attached By laws or Guidelines.

Road Race Report / RENSHAW’S RPP 2024 WINTER ZWIFT SHOP RIDES

« Last post by Mark on May 22, 2024, 12:11:14 AM »

WELCOME to the RENSHAW’S WINTER ZWIFT SHOP RIDES Info Page

HISTORY
Renshaw’s Pedal Project RPP's Meetup rides started on Zwift on the 15th June 2021, with the first of its Chop Off Tuesday Rides. Back then there were 2 rides a week with the 'No Drop' weekly social ride on the Thursday morning at 6:15am.
This 2021 inaugural series was a success, in fact due to the Covid Pandemic it was the only social cycling available. The lead to the “RPP Lockdown Special Zwift Event” on the 21st August 2021. Which drew riders across the region.
In 2022 and 2023 the ride has established itself on a Tuesday evening at 6pm, generally on a 20km course (such as Watopia Flat Route) with riders sticking together for the first half of the course before racing to the finish and having a crack at the sprint.
In 2024 the RENSHAW’S BIKES WINTER ZWIFT SHOP RIDES are back starting Tuesday 4th June 2024

Race 5 – Tuesday 2nd July 2024 – Tour de France Renshaw Shop Zwift Handicap
GET READY FOR THE YELLOW JERSEY ROUND!!!

WELCOME to the RENSHAW TdeF YELLOW JERSEY ZWIFT RIDE
Same Course as the first 4 rounds on the Watopia 20km course.. But this time no late starts, sorry
The plan is you wait on the start-line till your allocated start time. Attached are some the start times for people that have been riding the series. I will update this list as people enter. I will also message the start times on the start line.
Now it just a bit of fun, I can’t enforce these times, nor do I want too, in fact if you are not keen for a hard ride I am not that worried if you start earlier and take it easy, (but in that case don’t just race off and win-it)

Planned Start times for the Renshaw’s Winter ZwiftRide Yellow Jersey Handicap – can change.

2024 RENSHAW TdeF YELLOW JERSEY ZWIFT RIDE:
Nice to get a Message from Mark Renshaw in Italy at the Tour de France prior to the start of his Renshaw’s Yellow Jersey Zwift Shop Ride over night (2nd July 2024).
Generally the Shop ride has a nice social start, but for the yellow Jersey round its flat out from the start, (mainly due to the handicap start, and the opportunity to set a shop record).
At the end of lap1 Rosie and Jo were having a great battle in front, followed by Fran and Gary riding together. However, charging through the field, (sitting on 300+ watts) Harrison stormed to the lead for impressive win. Also finishing strong was Fran for second overall and the female Yellow Jersey from the unlucky Rosie who almost led from start to finish (ending up third overall).
