See the World Champs

Today's press has started running advertisements from Metlink about transport to and from Geelong for the upcoming World Championships. My guess is that the only day which is going to be hectic in terms of transport is the Sunday October 3 for the Men's Road Race.

The start is from Federation Square at 10am. The course starts out on the Geelong freeway before turning off at Werribee to head through Little River etc. This means the Geelong Road will be chaotic. Metlink are offering a plethora of trains (wise to pre-book) but will NOT take bikes.

Maybe with the course running pretty much through central Geelong this may not be an issue...it would be difficult to ride to different parts of the course anyway.

It's probably time to put some thought into the logistics of seeing the best riders in the world.
