Australian Clunker Classic [in BNE]

Meets Brisbane
1

Rules (there is only one) :

You can’t ride a mountainbike or anything suitable for the purpose.
So that leaves anything old or inappropriate: choppers, shoppers,
stingrays, postie bikes, road bikes etc. The route is offroad and includes river crossings, public bridlepaths and roads.

Looking at about a 9am start, Must wear a helmet, can be in either category

  1. Vanilla Clunker
  2. NOWT Speed (Vanilla Clunker sans chain)

To get an idea on what constututes a clunker event - check out the Worlds :slight_smile:

I will be taking my fixie (the zullo), and just putting cyclocross tyres on the beast. Also the rear disk wheel will make an appearence, just to be even more different. I would wear a skinsuit, but these are just too hard to find.

Yeah, its weird, but this will be the first one in Aust…

The fixed-wheel takes a true victory on an Australian Platform!!!
