...................Coffs Harbour!
The directions to the venue are in the first post of this thread. Stick Mt Coramba Road in your search and make sure it matches the description I described. For the record, Mt Coramba is not in the town of Coramba! Many dudes have blown up at me after they ended up in the wrong town. Follow my directions and you won't get laughed at!;)

A heads up for those heading to Stromlo this weekend. There is a lot of construction happening in the area with reduced speed zones and the Police have been setting up their mobile speed cameras around there. So just be aware.

Stromlo Feedback

Seeking any constructive feedback on the placement of race finish where it was today, and not at the Worlds finish. It created some communication problems for us that we could have managed better, but we need the feedback to know if it's worth putting any mental effort into figuring out how. Only riders and volunteers who were at the event please. And for being at the event ... thanks! :D

New finish spot worked well. I thought the times would have been closer to 2 minutes, it would be interesting to see how much quicker it would be without the wind.

Agreed with all of the above, reckon most riders could've knocked atleast 10-20 seconds off their final run. The wind was simply out of hand, terrible to ride in. Nothing anyone can do about that, just hope those trees grow up nice and big over the next year or so!

The boys (competitors) say the new finish is sooooo much better. As a volunteer/spectator/parent at the finish I thought it worked really well (although you could have turned the heat up about 15 degrees haha). There always seems to be a good crowd at the triple, triple, so to be able to see the finish times there was great. Thumbs up from us.
