Victorian Schools Cycling Championships 2016

On a sunny day after rain and hail cleared, the 6th Victorian Mountain Bike Championshiops were held at Dromana College on the Hillview Trail. 

Over 230 kids from all over the state appeared to race the heavy, and in parts muddy trail. 

We had some excellent results from the 16 strong Dromana Cycling Team who were missing some of their team due to regular team weekend sporting commitments.

Plenty of other great performances with mud and smiles on all of the kids faces.

Well done to staff who showed up in the icy cold conditions and it was greatly appreciated by the kids; Alan Marr, Alan Bounds, Theresa Stelling, Marc Plumridge, Derry Caufield, Paul Barton, and Annie Turner.

 

Special thanks to ex-students Ellie Wale and Jet Turner for running the pre-school riders around the pump track. Thanks to Kate Mason and Beau Wood for preparing and supporting the Dormant Racing Team before and at the event.

 

Thank you to the Dromana College Parents and Friends Association for their contribution on the day of scones with jam and cream. Feedback from the ladies was very positive and we look forward to having them on board again in 2017.
