Meet at the South Perth StrEATS at 6, grab a bite if you like and join us for a party paced pedal around the bridges. We usually pause at Claisebrook Cove for a drink and a chat.
All welcome, ride what you like :-)

All are welcome to join the WAHCC end of year Christmas picnic.
Bring a plate, and your beverage of choice. There will plenty of ice and some soft drinks and fruit juice. There are barbecue facilities close by.

It isn’t a Christmas Pageant without us!
We have 22 riders signed on for this year’s event.
For those that miss the in-person event, it will be televised on the 12th and 25th of December. We are group number 22 out of 76.

Our November meeting is the last meeting for the year. Please join us, visitors always welcome!

The Westral Wheelrace is the second oldest cycle race in Australia, dating all the way back to 1897.
Past winners include the likes of Sam Welsford, Perth pro cyclist riding in the Tour de France.
The WAHCC will be there with a brace of track (and other) bikes from the days of yore!
Find us up with the food truck and coffee truck.

We’re a bit of a fixture at Have A Go Day. If you’re free during the day on Wednesday Nov. 13 roll on down to Burswood Park - we’ll post details and a map in time, so watch this space.

The club has been proud to support Curtin FM’s major fundraiser over the past few years. You can find us at the bottom left of the below site plan.

Members, please arrive in time to set up and move your car offsite prior to 10am.

Our regular monthly meeting - visitors always welcome, and you never know what might turn up for show and tell!

Friday May 24th sees us back out at the Speed Dome in Midvale to exercise the bikes that we can’t ride on the road.

Aside from admiring and riding bikes from members’ collections that rarely see the light of day, or have their pedals turned, it’s great opportunity to try out track riding on a world class indoor velodrome. It’s also a great little social outing, so please consider joining the riders as a spectator (with pizza rights!)

Don't have a track bike... or don't trust your old tyres? Your $25 covers the use of a hire bike supplied by Track Cycling WA.

$25 for ride and pizza, $5 for spectator and pizza - sign up and pay in the club webshop, or turn up and pay on the night.

Or regular monthly meeting - visitors always welcome!

The club has a long, and fruitful, association with Toodyay’s amazing Moondyne Festival. It’s a one day event, running from 9am to 4pm.

The organisers have, for the past few years, had us set up on the forecourt of the old fire station (105 Stirling Terrace, Toodyay). Members, there is parking available at the rear of the Fire Station off Charcoal Lane, just before the Duke St intersection.

The forecourt is quite exposed in sunny weather so it would be great to get a club marquee up there - any volunteers to give it a ride there or a ride home? Please let Rob know.

It’s a busy day with lots of stalls and non stop entertainment - see you there!

For March we’re back at the newly refurbished Floreat Athena clubrooms, yay!

Some other good news; the club has been the recipient of some quality donations, and we’re back to our usual auction format. The March auction features items donated by the family of noted Perth racer Robin Cassidy, as well as a nice refurbished Healing, an 80’s Raleigh Bomber and an ex Des Williams Capo. Photos of all the items are available on Flickr. `

Bidding is now open to members on Bidding Owl. All items will be at the clubroom for inspection and collection at the meeting. Members will be able to bid in person at the meeting.

Founding member Alan Naber is an engaging speaker. He is also well travelled. Please join us for what promises to be an entertaining trawl through his archives.
From Alan; “Sorting my fifty years of photos relating to biking, I have found some good and bad bike parking ideas and some memorable incidents that happened to me on my bike.”

Members, please check your email for details of the event.

Happy new year and all that. Like me, I reckon you’re really looking forward to our January meeting, which was due to happen this Monday, the 15th.
I say ‘was’ because we’ve just been informed by Floreat Athena that the clubrooms are undergoing some major works. The works, commissioned by City of Vincent, proceeded without Floreat Athena’s knowledge.
Anyway, the long and the short of it is that we can’t meet at FAFC this month or in February. Time is too tight to organise an alternate venue so the January meeting will be on Zoom (check your email for details ). I hope to see you there and please keep your eyes peeled for the Jan/Feb newsletter out any day now.
Rob Frith, club chairperson.

Our popular and successful exhibition Nullarbor Crossings - A History of Challenge, originally slated to run at the Museum of Perth until the end of January 2024, will close on Wednesday, December the 13th.

We’ve been excited to be able to share with you the results of club members’ research efforts, which has turned up some remarkable new material.
Please join us on Saturday, December 9th at 11am for backstory floor talks by Frank West and Robert Frith.

• Frank will run you through the discovery and renovation of the Billy Read and Gordon Jones’ Aussie Tandem.

• Robert will take you on a tour through recently uncovered photos of Hubert Opperman’s 1937 crossing.

Rod Evans describes his 1989 Around Australia Record attempt as a ‘baptism by fire’. In setting the new record, Rod rode an average of 278 km each day for nearly 50 days. For the next of our ‘In Conversation’ series Rod will be joined by Colin Ottaway, the first rider to finish the 2022 IndiPac, an informal, unsupported transcontinental crossing. Toby Hodgson will host this in-depth look into life behind bars day after day.

Join us at Burswood Park for the Seniors Recreation Council of WA’s big day out.

Ken Norris was cycling coach on Bruce Hunt’s 1975 record trans-continental ride. Join us at the Museum Of Perth for first hand account of the trials and tribulations of putting together a record attempt.

Supported by WestCycle, the RAC and the Dept. of Transport as a part of Bike Month.

Curtin FM Car Show's tagline is 'more than just a car show', and indeed it is; there will be bikes there too! Come on down and see the past, present and future of personal transportation !
