25.01.2022 This is on tomorrow and you should go to it. w/ Beatbox Kitchen Coffee Supreme Melbourne Coffeepeddlr and heaps of other ledgends

25.01.2022 ide is go. 630 rollout from the shop. Bring lights, a gillet and a posi attitude, yo.

24.01.2022 Tonight we ride 6:30 from the shop, tour de burbs, maybe a burrito riffs

23.01.2022 G'day M8's We're going to reboot the shop ride, starting tonight. If you've forgotten the rules you can find them here Generally speaking 6:30 from the shop, no drop, self supported, don't be a dick.... Get involved

22.01.2022 TEARS FLOW, BUT WHY AM I CRYING? AFTER ALL I'M NOT AFRAID OF DYING. Well - we're back after a solid off-season of riding bikes, not riding bikes and drinking beer. After a fairly raucous 'AGM' on Friday night, we're bringing back the Wednesday bunch rides. Instead of a Slack Rock return, we've decided to do a Burbs loop, starting and returning to the SAINT CLOUD shop in Fitzroy. We chose a hillier course primarily because Duggan has been averaging about 250m ascent per month... for some time now.. We'll be waiting at the top of the hills for people (Duggan), so come down and have a roll with us. Be sure to familiarise yourself our bunch ride rules again. See ya Wednesday!

22.01.2022 How could you not want to hit the Hubbard Highway tonight? SLACK ROCK - RETURN. 6:30PM. Fed Sq. No lights, no ride. No colour-matched shoes and glasses, no ride. No shit talking, no ride. Get on it.... IT'S A NICE DAY TO HAVE A SCHNITZEL, HAVE A SCHNITZEL, HAVE A SCHNITZEL.

21.01.2022 Sorry to break the bi-weekly rule straight up but heaps of the crew are in Thailand drinking Gatorade out of coconuts and protein out of pineapples. Keep up to date here or on http://tofr1.com/

21.01.2022 Aight, as the priest would have wanted we're changing the rules tonight. 6:30 (depart) fed square for a roll down beach road. To Black Rock with reserve road loop thrown in. Remember bring lights, stuff to fix yer own punnies, don't be a dick.... Should be an ace night for it though.

21.01.2022 Oh man did we have a banger of a weekend at the Sam Miranda road race! Great course, great weather, Beechworth brewery, and Duggan didn't even get badly hurt when he swan dived over a Hawthorn rider mid-bunch... We got involved in the racing in both B and C grades, so we'll try to get a heavily exaggerated blog post up soon. Definitely back next year!

21.01.2022 SMELL THAT? EAU DE CRITERIUM. Oh man we're getting pretty pumped at the idea of just racing in shorts and a jersey. Suns out. Guns out. For us, this is how a typical crit day goes: ... - Ride out to race talking shit - Consume caffeine pre-race - Unsuccessfully try to break away - Whinge about riders sitting in - Get beaten in sprint by riders who sat in - Consume caffeine along with avocado on on toast at cafe - Whinge about riders who sat in - Elaborate on why your 2 minute break away effort was unsuccessful - Ride home THIS WEEKEND CRITS ARE BACK. WHAT A BANGER.

21.01.2022 At this stage the bunch ride is still go but we're keeping a close eye on the radar. With thunderstorms and possible hail predicted, we're thinking we might just stay in and play Skyrim instead. We'll call it at 5ish so keep and ear to the ground. This one's for Nick Mahoney who almost got himself booted off the team the other day for not having ever listened to Motörhead. You're on thin ice mate. ... SHAKE YOUR HEAD. YOU MUST BE DEAD IF IT DON'T MAKE YOU FLY.

21.01.2022 Some more grossly exaggerated accounts from the Sam Miranda weekend - this time from Elite and Masters C grade. Verbatim: Mitch - "You there. May I ask if you are going to pull a turn?"... Cooked Guy - "Oh I'm terribly sorry, but you see, I'm quite tired and would rather sit on the back for a while if that's ok?" Mitch - "Oh I see - well, you see it's disturbing our rhythm. Would you be so kind as to just drop off our group for the remainder of the race?" Cooked Guy - "Oh no, not at all. Please accept my sincere apologies." Mitch - "Wine and cheese later?" Cooked Guy - "Why yes. That sounds lovely. See you then"

20.01.2022 Battered and bruised from DDCX madness on Sunday? Headbutt the barrier? Impale yourself on a wooden stake? Come down and exchange war (read: injury) stories with the Saint Cloud Racing crew on the recovery ride tonight. 630. Fed Sq. Slack Rock return. THE BURNING CHAOSPHERE SEETHES

20.01.2022 DUST OFF YOUR CANKLES, CRIT SPECIALISTS! HCC CRITS ARE BACK! No shop ride because we'll be spewing all over the back straight at the Tear Drop tonight with the mighty Hawthorn Cycling Club. LOL. RACE. LOL. BEER. BURRITO. ... In that order. See youse there!

19.01.2022 It's not often we'll bail on a ride (actually that's BS - we pike all the time), but with a BoM forecast of "chance of thunderstorms or hail" unfortunately we outtie three thousie. All you tough nuts made from an alloy of very hard nails, you know the drill. 630PM. Fed Sq. Chances are there'll be some equally tough nut there waiting for ya. No guarantee's but. Also, this will be our last Wednesday night ride for some time, because next week it becomes the HAWTHORN HURT LOCK...ER (AND BURRITO) NIGHT at the Boulie crits. We can't FKN wait... I GOT GUNS THAT KNOCK YOU OFF THIS EARTH.

19.01.2022 Sorry for the late notice folks! The ride is definitely on tonight - we've just all been too busy to get a post up! Usual drill. 630. Fed Sq. Mad fun times. Spiro's been complaining about the lack of club banger's for the "south-of-the-river" audience, so here ya go mate! ... BLUE ARE THE STREETS AND ALL THE TREES ARE TOO.

18.01.2022 So we survived NCXS Sydney. We'll put a report up this week in which Duggan will outline why mountain biking is for savages, Jez will outline his hatred of Vittoria XG tubulars, NikCee will probably talk about tyre pressures, and Spiro will discuss the finer points of colour-matching. Also Maxibons.

17.01.2022 IT'S ALREADY WEDNESDAY WHICH MEANS MITCH'S MOUSTACHE WILL BE ON DISPLAY AT FED SQ FROM 630PM. It's also Loz's birthday and she's rolling out her bangin' Time to come along on the bunch ride. She's asked us not to mention how long she takes to clip in at every traffic light, so be sure not to take notice of that for us. Thanks in anticipation. BUT SERIOUSLY IT'S LIKE 5 MINUTES. EVERY. TIME.

16.01.2022 LATE CALL DUE TO WEATHER UNCERTAINTY - THE BUNCH RIDE IS ON! Come down and see if you can beat Adelaide on her Hillman up Burgandy St. 630. Shop. No lights. No ride.

16.01.2022 Q: What's harder to get than front row seats at an Elton John concert? A: Entry into the Tour of Bright. With all of us scoring some VRS points across our various endeavours during the year, WE'RE ALL IN, YO! ... Whilst the Fonz, Mat Gray and Mahoney will be saving the legs for the climbs; the rest of us will likely be involved in a competition to see who can spend the smallest number of kms ensconced in the peloton. Short odds are on the ever aggressive Mitch - however that whirring you've been hearing periodically isn't your neighbours washing machine. It's Spiro on his Lemond, south of the river, wearing a pink, v-neck sweater.

16.01.2022 SUN'S OUT. GUNZ OUT. Shop ride's ridin'' dirty from SAINT CLOUD at 1830. Bring ya grillz. THEY SEE US ROLLIN'. THEY HATIN'.

16.01.2022 Sup lords! Since we just ticked over 600 likes and we haven't been good to youse... Greg "The Kid" Hogan for the win! How's much went in the chop Hogey?... Also Saint Cloud Racing's friend, Lauretta Hanson, for podium hi-fives!

16.01.2022 listen in for ride details tomorrow, for now re-acquaint yourself with the law. http://saintcloudracing.blogspot.com.au/p/bunch-ride.html

15.01.2022 Ride's on! 630. Shop. Be there!

15.01.2022 Rides off tonight

15.01.2022 Keep an ear out 'cause we reckon Wednesday night rides could kick off next week. Also keep an ear out for 2.20 and 4.30 'caus ffffffffffffffffffffffff

14.01.2022 Well, unfortunately none of our crew can make it tonight due to "real world" responsibilities... We'll be back next week. There's been quite a bit of interest about the ride tonight so y'all should just meet up down at Fed Sq at 630 and get some turn ripping practice in before another weekend of racing. Expressions of interest in joining the ride tonight can be lodged in the comments so you know you're not just going to be attacking yourself on the way home. ... YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I AM HERE WITH YOU.

14.01.2022 What an INSANE weekend of CX! Did ya have a ball? Come describe your puddle/drift/off-camber antics with the crew on the bunch ride tonight. 630. Fed Sq. Slack Rock return. Weather looks ominous but we've got our fingers crossed. Will call it closer to the time if all hell breaks loose. THE MOON LEADS CELESTIAL LEGIONS.

14.01.2022 Hey lords Being as it's transfer season, we'd like to welcome Mason Austen to the roster. Mason has been riding and racing since forever but he joins us fresh off the Karen Hill Nutrition plan, so you can bet he's hungry, hungry (as we all are) for a Maxibon. Seriously I reckon if race organizers offered ice cream as prizes we'd all race %9000 better. See you at Hawthorn tonight.

13.01.2022 THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST THIING THAT'S EVER HAPPENED. Our very own Dingus Dave has prepared a killer homebrew for Friday knock-offs this week at the shop...

11.01.2022 Massive weekend of CX coming up! The first, EVER, cyclocross national championship race is on at Cranwell Park, Maribyrnong. Australia's best riders will be fighting it out for the green and gold bands on the skinsuit. Sure to be a great day of racing! Get down there and be part of history! Our very own Cross Boss, Jeremy MF Soawyer, will be taking 'em on the Elite category, with Mat FKN Gray looking to take his state title onto national level in the Masters race. AND DEN!... Sunday. Darebin Parklands. DDCX Round 2 and the FINAL round of the National Cyclocross Series is shaping up to be the SICKEST CX RACE EVER PUT ON IN AUS. WE'RE NOT EVEN JOKING. HYPER-RAD. GET DOWN THERE AND HECKLE/RIDE/LAUGH/HECKLE.

11.01.2022 Here at Saint Cloud Racing, we're super-proud to announce a brand new sponsor! The lovely Karen from Karen Hill Nutrition has come on board with the team to offer us diet advice (for Duggan primarily) along with race fuel prep and Chef services on tour! Karen is a University qualified nutritionist, currently completing a PhD in sports nutrition and exercise metabolism. She'll be providing the odd tip and recipe for us to post up here and there so stay tuned. ... Karen also absolutely smashes it on a MTB, competing at the highest levels - so we're looking forward to some dirt sessions in the near future. To say we're excited is a huge understatement. We're almost as excited as when we heard that Monster Jam is coming to Aus. No shit. We're going. Welcome aboard Karen! We look forward to eating your foodz.

10.01.2022 Saint Cloud Racing stalwart Rach "Rah" Oakenfull got hit by a car whilst out training yesterday morning. She's out of hospital this morning and heading home battered and bruised to rest up. The rest of the SCR crew wish her a speedy recovery! LIGHT WEIGHT!

09.01.2022 Team couldn't make it to Monaco this year, at the Tote in stead. #marginalgains

09.01.2022 Weather forecast looks sweet. So does Nick's new TT bike. He'll ride it tonight if this post gets 10 likes. SHOP RIDE. 630 ROLL OUT. MIN PACE. MAX LOLS.

09.01.2022 JIMMY, JIMMY, JIMMY. CAN'T YOU SEE? SOMETIMES YOUR WORDS JUST HYPNOTISE ME. Want to ride like a boss? Read this insight to the trials and tribulations of serious bike racers.

08.01.2022 PRO TIP: White socks help you look like Angus Young. Get Friday'd legends

08.01.2022 "Gene was cool - even back then." - anon. Get your spew bucket. Duggan's overcome by nostalgia.

07.01.2022 What's better than riding with Simon Geschke? Riding with a newly crowned State CX Champ. Come down to the shop ride tomorrow and give Saint Cloud Racing's very own Nick "Spiro" Edwards a pat on the back for winning the Masters CX State Title last weekend. Just be sure not to lay it on too thick as we all know how that ends... fkn rowing stories from the glory days... ... YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. 630. Saint Cloud. Be there.

07.01.2022 Soz we got caught up doing a science with Karen Hill Nutrition. No shop ride tonight.

06.01.2022 Between stages at the 3 Day Tour this year, instead of recovering by wearing compression, consuming protein and relaxing generally, we chose to do VO2max sub-potato-threshold catch effort repeats. Worked a treat. Join us tonight for a more traditional recovery activity on our Wednesday ride. ... 630PM roll out from the shop. See youse there.

06.01.2022 Ride is on at the moment but keep an eye out cause if it's raining FTS. Prolly going to be freezing in any case, see ya there.

05.01.2022 In another DDCX/HELLCREW/SCR collabo, team #FYC is off to Sydney to race, crash, mechanical and heckle their way through the 3rd round if the NCXS. Without Jamesy this year we can't run with #jawline, so keep an eye out for #FYC updates. Good luck to the other Saint Cloud Racing lads in the combine tomorrow also. #PAFT.

05.01.2022 Cooked from the 3 Day Tour? Attack from km zero every day? Place in a stage? Finish in the money in GC? Just have a sick weekend away racing in central Vic? We did. The weather looks perfect for our bunch ride tomorrow to roll tired legs out after a tough weekend of racing. Join us at the shop for a 630PM roll-out. For those who haven't ridden with us, riding up the Col de Burgandy is much like this video except we don't look like hubbards when we attack. #thatsaFroomin

04.01.2022 Suns out, rides on, remember - no one left behind.

04.01.2022 Daylight savings is here, crits are upon us, it's time to hang up your long sleeves and leg warmers. See you at Hawthorn Cycling Club teardrop tonight. Remember kids, Allosaurus sez paft.

04.01.2022 We're back on the horse with updates and race exaggerations. Here's a banger of a summary of what went down Sam Miranda in B grade from Mat FKN Gray. C grade shenanigans including Duggan's first crash in 4 years of racing to come.

04.01.2022 GOT YOUR ENTRY IN FOR THE POP STEWART MEMORIAL HANDICAP ON THE WEEKEND? YOU BETTER HAVE. Come down to the Saint Cloud Racing bunch ride tonight and discuss sandbagging strategies with the crew. - "It's my first road race. Ever."... - "I've had gastro this week." - "I'm creepin'..." - "My power meter weighs 4kg" 630PM. Fed Sq. Lights. Laughs. Pace lines.

03.01.2022 No ride tonight, gonna ride dirty instead. Have a go at this dreamboat though

03.01.2022 RADAR SAYS NO. No ride tonight people. Do an ergo. Or not. Whatever.

03.01.2022 FINALLY! A FREAKIN' NICE WEDNESDAY EVENING! Shop ride's on. 630 roll out. No light / No ride. There's even a rumour that a very famous jawline might be in attendance. A very famous jawline indeed.... ... Get on down.

03.01.2022 Your club champs. Race them.

02.01.2022 Ride is on, come see if if Dugga has brakes.

02.01.2022 Right - the weather forecast is looking dodgy, but the radar's looking ok. At this stage we're still heading out on our bunch ride from the shop at 6:30. If all hell breaks loose prior to then, we'll cancel the ride here. Stay tuned.

02.01.2022 Stay inside people, FTS.

02.01.2022 You know what's happening this weekend? JEREMY MF SOAWYER IS BACK IN THE COUNTRY. The SAINT CLOUD RACING crew have missed Jez like Rolf misses his wobble board. Get along to the shop ride tonight to hear our best Jez anecdotes. ... Like the one where he had a couple too many at the shop, bunny-hopped his sweet #racklyfe commuter only to have the fork fold in resulting in an epic stack and a broken helmet. Yeah that one's a goodie. 630 rollout. No lights. No ride. Easy pace. Much lols.

02.01.2022 Slogged bikes round and round in circles were beaten by much better riders. Spiro binned it, looked good but, Steve Duggan - zero - MF - mechanicals, Nick Cee didn't get bashed for heckling, Jeremy does not rate XG's. Going to the pub now then eating outlandish amounts of pasta. Bikes

01.01.2022 Well, we had a banger of a time at the GORC Classic on the weekend. Riding the 120km course on our brakeless fixies earnt us enough gnar points to score "Most Courageous" team award, whilst our facial hair also scored us "Most Hairy". Quite a few lols were had, so we might get a blog post up with some more pics and maybe a video soon. #banger #skids #mileycyrus

01.01.2022 Radar's clear. Tyres inflated. Celtic metal abounds. BUNCH RIDE TIME. 630PM. Saint Cloud.

01.01.2022 What's better than your mates saying you look like Simon Geschke? Simon Geschke SAYING YOU LOOK LIKE SIMON GESCHKE! Weather looks good. Come down to the shop at 630 for our Burbs loop and see if you can beat Simon Geschke up Burgandy St.

01.01.2022 Hold onto your ergonomic chairs and put a new back tyre on - here's an account of this years #GORC from the lovely Gene Mills. #skiiiiiiiiiiiddddzzzzzzzz
