The Bendigo Youth Racing team is in full flight as they switch their attention from the Wonthaggi triumph onto the BIG ONE, the Australian International Pedal Prix in September 2008.
With a new year comes a new team and a new perspective. The wall paper has changed dramatically since the last BYR team made the trek across the border to Murray Bridge in 2006. Since then we have introduced a new workshop and 5 new team members. It was decided by the founding members after the 2006 campaign that is was time to take a back seat roll and allow a new injection of youth and enthusiasm to take over the reigns. "It may be a new look team but two things remain the same, the BYR name and the drive and determination to be on that podium on Sunday 21st of September" said BYR's President Jarrod Henderson.
The team enjoyed a couple of weeks off after the Wonthaggi Human Powered Grand Prix to get our breath back and focus on the race that counts. Since then we have moved through the design phase and on to the construction confident that we have designed a strong reliable and fast vehicle that will be up to the task. Technical Director Callan Ridge said "Its great to see the new design emerge from a CAD Drawing and begin to take shape".
The 2008 Bendigo Youth Racing team consists of a range of personality's and age groups spanning from 16 to 23.
The Team for 08 is:
Jarrod Henderson

Rowan Nankervis
