Dave Roberts Racing: October 2013
http://daverobertsracing.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, 17 October 2013. 2013 Scott 13hr - Team Smooth Transition. In celebrating 25yrs of the Canberra Off-road Cycling Club the event committee decided to give us all an extra hour of racing fun, making it a 13hr/25hr race. The 13hr was scheduled to run as 7hrs on Saturday, restarting on Sunday morning for another 6hrs. Introducing a 'one-off' format created some motivators for us, there will only ever be one 13hr/25hr event (as oppose to 12hr/24hr) so to succeed here riders will. Coming up the rear.

Dave Roberts Racing: CORC XCO Rnd 2 Stromlo – A Grade – 15th place - SenseCore
http://daverobertsracing.blogspot.com/2015/03/corc-xco-rnd-1-stromlo-grade-15th-place.html
Friday, 6 March 2015. CORC XCO Rnd 2 Stromlo – A Grade – 15th place - SenseCore. This race went well until I slashed a sidewall on my rear tyre on the last lap. That's racing. I was lining up to make some moves on the last lap and was hoping to finish in 7th or 8th but wasn't to be. Another great day in the forest doing what we love. I was chasing John Bride on last lap, wasn't to be. Callum McNamara setting the pace. Dylan Cooper finished 2nd behind Andy Blair. Me on song before it all went wrong.

Dave Roberts Racing: Introducing the Mont 24hr SenseCore Race Team
http://daverobertsracing.blogspot.com/2015/03/introducing-mont-24hr-sensecore-race.html
Wednesday, 25 March 2015. Introducing the Mont 24hr SenseCore Race Team. 5 of us are young Dads and we have one young gun. All riding as amateurs in local and interstate race’s. We all ride with a great passion for performance. Here is my take on the team. Hero Ability: Subtle, seated, crank ripping climbing. You better listen for a gear change otherwise that rubber band you have been holding between your teeth will snap before you know it. Trent is a baller turned cyclist. With trash talk skills lea...

Sunday, 4 August 2013. Rubena Tyres XCO Series 2013 – Round 4. Absolutely killed it today, still riding high off my second win in Vets, the racing was close, the track was rocky and technical.

Catch up results - still loving the support I get from TLC Cycles in Phillip, ACT. 9th June - Rubena Tyres XCO Series – Round 2 -. 30th June - On The Rivet 3Hr Series – Round 2 -. Big day ...

Dave Roberts Racing: January 2015

Thursday, 15 January 2015. Sponsorship contracts for 2015. Coming from a purely amateur racing background, to be talking about sponsorship contracts is so exciting. It also gives hope to us mere mortals that if you train consistently, stay loyal to you LBS, race fair and tell a few people about it all, you can count on some really fun opportunities presenting themselves (if you can catch the swinging door before it closes on you). TLC Cycles and Scott. The 2015 season - just stay loose bro! What the bana...

Sunday, 17 August 2014. Cruisin' Mt Stromlo with Lauren and Dan on the weekend. Saturday, 16 August 2014. Rocky Trail Shimano GP Mt Annan – 4hr Men’s Elite - 1st Place. Botanical Garden trail comes with a variety of challenges. Hamish at warp speed. Here’s where I think I went wrong:. Busted myself a little too hard on the first lap. Stood up out of the saddle way too much on the short pinchy climbs. Did not drink enough water. Did not keep up electrolyte or carb intake to what was required. Will be runn...
