« on: June 16, 2021, 12:45:42 AM »
Renshaw’s Pedal Project begin their Zwift racing events:-
Renshaw’s Pedal Project held its first ESports Chop-off event yesterday (Tuesday 15June 2021) on the Zwift Platform. The event used the popular Sand & Sequoias course which may be only 22kms but has a fairly solid climb in the second half of the course.
Former Bathurst Champion Harry Carter organised the event which included local Pro Riders Mark Renshaw and Will Hodges who took control of a 4 rider lead group and set a solid pace from the start.
The newly formed Bathurst Cycle Club Zwift team (BxCC) rode the event in preparation for the AusCycling ESports Club National Series with will be contested during July. The Bathurst Club excited about Renshaws Pedal Project organising these events to give the local riders some On-Line experience ahead of the National Series.
Former Bathurst Road Racing Co-ordinator Craig McAlister enjoyed the opportunity to ride with the club again and showed plenty on his old form finishing equal 6th overall in the event crossing the line with the events top female rider Kirsten Howard. Believed to be his first ZwiftPower Ranking event Craig was the big winner in the D grade BxCC Bathurst Team Category.
Meanwhile two other past Bathurst Club riders were the leading BxCC performers in C and B Grade, with former Bathurst Commassaire Gary Baker the leading C Grade BxCC competitor and Cal Baker third overall and leading B Grader in front local Champ David Nicholas who is in heavy training ahead of the Tokyo Para Olympics. Top A Grader for the BxCC team was Mark Windsor.
Renshaw’s Pedal Project are happy with how the how the On-line Cycling Events are going with a social ride organised for Thursday morning were cyclist can go for a ride indoors and also having the opportunity for a chat with fellow riders. The next Chop-off event is planned for next Tuesday afternoon.
