Dinnerville Handicap Race @ Dapto @ 2 June - Ian Grant (BiciSport Anytime Fitness) just after the start line

Once upon a time in cycling paradise, not that long ago, NSW had a healthy number of 100k road race handicaps on the State racing program. Be it the two Cootamundra Weekends, the Coonabarabran Gunnedah. the Wagga Albury, or maybe a Grafton Inverell, a Goulburn Camden, the Mussellbrook Tamworth, a Nyngan Dubbo or lastly a nice Mudgee Open. Some interclub level handicaps remain but they too are now as rare as Campagnolo 10 speed.

Now its just one - the Ken Dinnerville handicap in Dapto.
