25.01.2022 Tonights plan.... 7:00pm start (TBC) Flying 250m; Flying 500m; Flying 250m... Some may wish to do 750m or another 250m to replace the 500m effort. The main thing is to get the start right for the 250m in the omnium.

23.01.2022 Quote of the week... "Excuses are for people who dont want it bad enough"

23.01.2022 Sprint Group this week... Flying 100m efforts - light prep for this weekends State Masters Starting time 7:00pm....yes 7:00pm!! Spread the word...

23.01.2022 OK Sprint Group, some not so good news... Now the SuperDrome has been re-opened after the renovations, CA and SASI have conspired against us and taken our Thursday night time slot on the calendar. Our only choices now are 7:00pm Tuesday night or 8pm Wednesday night.... Feedback please on preferences but try and avoid the expected criticism of those concerned. Yes, it sucks but it is what it is.

19.01.2022 Some strength work for the next few weeks. Gate starts tonight. By there ready to go at 7pm

19.01.2022 Good luck to all the Masters competitors this weekend in the state championships - over 40 nominations! Racing starts Sat and Sun at 9:00am and the forecast for Sunday might mean a couple of State records could fall in the Flying 200m, if recent training times are anything to go by. Saturday: Time Trial; Individual Pursuit; Points Race... Sunday: Sprints; Scratch Race Only $2 entry fee for spectators if anyone wants to see a bunch of not so old cyclists burning up the boards of the velodrome.

14.01.2022 Cycling SA advise no Wednesday night endurance training this week (19 Feb) due to track repairs... for any of you sprinters silly enough to do endurance training as well!

14.01.2022 OK, Sprinters - we are on for this Thursday 20/6 at 7pm at the SuperDrome! This week will be a "Track Reorientation/Activation" session - just in case you forgot which way around you have to go! * 30 lap warm-up (88"-90")... * Drop-ins from the Blue line - 125m x 6 (warm-up gear) * 15 lap cool-down For next week, well let you know the session date and time (hopefully by then we will confirm our permanent 7pm Thursday session) and post the season training plan.

14.01.2022 Good news for sprinters, Taekwondo finishes around 6:30pm at the SuperDrome tonight and there is no other training. We can start early (7:00pm) instead of the usual 8pm start. See you there.

12.01.2022 Wow, almost exactly a year since our last post!! Sprint Group training returns tonight after the SuperDrome has been resurfaced. 8:00 - 9:30pm. Roller warmup from 7:30 for those so inclined... $15...all you can eat!

11.01.2022 Attention riders: Thursday night Sprint training at the SuperDrome has been put on hold over the Christmas holidays and through January. Well advise in due course when we are back..or keep an eye on the CSA Facebook page and other notification channels.

11.01.2022 There will be some changes to the format for our Sprint training session... We are currently in discussion with the Office of Rec and Sport and SASI to agree on timeslot for our training session. The only available time slots are Tuesday at 7pm or Wednesday at 8pm. Were hoping they can move the TID session from Thursday at 7pm to Tuesday instead. That way we can go to our original day and starting at 7pm!... Well be reverting back to a structured training session with planned efforts each week. Well post the plan here so you can see whats coming up each week. Sorry, there wont be an opportunity to come out and do your own thing, as we had become of recent times.

10.01.2022 The SuperDrome is closed for repairs next week in time for the National Track Championships the week after. For those interested in maintaining your "sprintingness" we will be at the Edwardstown track from 6:00pm next week (23 Jan) and we will play it by ear for the 30th.

08.01.2022 Track Nationals for Elite, Juniors and Masters will all be in Qld next year according to the announcement by Cycling Qld this morning.

08.01.2022 Changes happening Sprinters...stay tuned Well be back on track shortly and and will be made announcement shortly. In the mean time, a page refresh, updating to a closed Group and more...

07.01.2022 Sprinters dominate the first session of the Sate Masters Track Championships! Details to follow

06.01.2022 Good news Sprint Group (and other Masters riders)... Still awaiting official confirmation but... It seems that the Board of CSA have listened to the membership and agreed that some of the Tech Regs for restricting the awarding of medals at State championships have been abolished.... There is no longer a rule that says that where less than four riders compete in an event one less medal that the number of riders will be awarded. In other words if there are only two competitors then Gold and Silver will be awarded. Also for bunch events (not that us Sprinters were ever affected ) where age categories are combined, there is no longer a requirement to finish within a % of the bunch time to be eligible for a medal. Finally some common sense! BTW: No change to current regs for timed events...where there are less than three entrants you still need to be within a % of the State time to medal. This brings us in to line with what is happening in other states.

06.01.2022 Hey Sprinters... Kilkenny CC have the 300 lap derby coming up on Sunday Feb 24th (yeah right 300 laps...pfffftttt!!) But did you know you can nominate just for the Perce Beare Memorial Wheelrace. A handicap race to be run over 3 laps as a support event.... Entries close on 18 Feb...Get into it!!

05.01.2022 Yes, senior races on the program including "sprint" races - Win and In (reverse elimination), Tempo and 1000m handicap in preparation for the Perce Beare Memorial

04.01.2022 National Junior Track Series (NJTS) is on Thursday and Friday 15-16th Jan so no Sprint Training this week :=( Please come out next week!

04.01.2022 BTW: Sprint training also cancelled this week due to Masters State Track Championships this weekend.

03.01.2022 Hey Sprinters, Can you make it for a 7pm start on this Thursday 13th Nov please. There will be nobody training from 6-8pm so it would be great if we could start and finish early :=)

02.01.2022 Quote of the week... A lie has speed, but truth has endurance. - Edgar J. Mohn What does that say about us??
