Yesterday Scody was announced as a major sponsor for the Australian Para Cycling Team for next year's Paralympic Games in London. This is fantastic news for the program, so everyone turned out for their last track training session in full Scody kit to show their appreciation. Here are our very own "Scody Girls" relaxing between training efforts -
Let me introduce the team L-R, Felicity (tandem stoker), Steph (tandem pilot), Sue (C4), Brandie (tandem stoker), Jayme (C1), and Kerry (tandem pilot). Our other female team member Alex couldn't make it for the photo unfortunately, probably other media commitments....
However, it's not all lounging around as the following show:
That's Sue carving up the boards
and Kerry and Brandie checking out the top of the track
Today is our last day before we fly out for Italy and it's not all sunshine and roses. Oh no, elite athletes still have to pack their own bikes for the trip so a few hours were spent under the velodrome today rather than on it, fully immersed in bubble wrap and packing tape! Those diagonal boards at the top left of this photo are the banking of the velodrome, for those who might be interested.
We fly out tomorrow morning, so there may be a lull in posts for a while depending on internet access. Who knows - it's a big small world these days!
