News Shorts - 16 February

BiciSport @ Cenrtennial Park @ 12 Feb - Steve Dixon (BiciSport) is now a regular at the weekly Thursday training ride. Steve won the 1972 Sydney to Goulburn Classic over 200k which started at the Sydney suburb of Revesby ! !.

Steve’s bike was a retro classic - an aluminium frame on carbon forks with Clement singles (glued to the rims) and the rear brakes were “single pivot”. Gears were Campagnolo Ergo shift 8 speed circa 1993. A retro classic and so was the bike !.

BiciSport @ Cenrtennial Park @ 12 Feb - a single pivot rear brake caliper is a rare sight together with a Clement Strata single tyre glued to the rims !!. Retro as retro can ever be !!
