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!
Today saw the final round of the 2017-18 PACC Zero Friction Cycling Time Trial season. The field was small, but the racing was fast – on the way out at least – but a headwind on the way home slowed the average speeds. You can check out the race 5 results here and a round by round recap here.
The last CXtwiLITE race under the setting sun of summer 17/18, held in a lesser-known park that is just one big bull-ant nest.
A few of our PACC members have ben privvy to the tasty treats and amazing coffee provided by the Seafaring Fool Cafe on Grenfell Street, and Seafaring Fools at Glenelg South .... and its the friendships and awesome PACC vibes, owners Alistair, Ben and Joel have picked up on that has resulted in them becoming financial sponsors of PACC!
