Bendigo Oldies Racing for Wonthaggi 2009


The 2009 Wonthaggi Human Powered Grand Prix is once again creeping up very quickly with less than 2 months to go until the first 24hr for 2009. We decided as a team at the end of last year that BYR wont be taking to the track to defend our title in 2009.

However you will see a BOR (Bendigo Oldies Racing) vehicle out on the track in a refurbished BY-08. BOR is a team comprised of our Parents, Pit Crew, Former Teachers and people who have all gone out of their way to support us over the past years. In what will be a first for BYR our dedicated pit crew Chris Crowe and Marcus Sloane and Mike Turnbull will swap spanners for lycra as the rest of the team make their wonthaggi debut.

The normal riding team will perform a complete role reversal and see what the race is like on the other side of the pit wall. The BOR team may not have Youth on there side but if one thing is for sure, they will be out there giving 110% effort at all times.

The following are the members of Bendigo Oldies Racing and how they are linked to BYR:
Chris Crowe = Pit Crew.
Marcus Sloane = Pit Crew.
Mike Turnbull = Pit Crew and Flora Hill SC HPV teacher.
Paul King = Parent of Daryl & Gavin.
Stuart Ridge = Parent of Callan.
