Port Adelaide CC returned to the Reservoir Park in North Adelaide - this time with permission from SA Water and the City of Adelaide we were able to circumnavigate the reservoir itself, as well as use the park's other terrain which includes gravel, dirt, bottomless pine needles as well as the former cricket oval with super grippy turf.
A cracking course in damp conditions in John E Brown Park, North Adelaide but massive races across all categories J9 and up!
A very 'Amercian-style' course with an old cricket oval in North Adelaide providing ample space to incorporate a rectangular spiral of death and some primo grippy grassed corners, mixed with some loose pine needle and mulched sections provided a fast and flowing course in some areas, and a serpantine section requiring full concentration in others
Wintery conditions, some sideways rain, some sunshine and everything in between. We were in Giddy Up! (the other side of Potting Mix park) which has a mix of mulch, gravel, sand, loose stuff and bitumen. We're spoilt with our courses!
