First day of the 2017 RACV Energy Breakthrough kicked off in true fashion - team registrations and wristbands! Once we got the formalities out of the way, it was time to get down to business: Display & Presentation, Design & Construction, Scrutineering and the HPV Primary Practice Session. Check out all the action, photos and results.
Yes, you heard right. Individual riders will be able to have their lap times automatically attributed to them during the HPV Secondary & EEV Practice and 24 Hour Trial. We've partnered with our friends and race timing experts, Multisport Australia to deliver this new opportunity to dig into your team's data.
The obstacles and challenges are ready for the 56 teams entered in the Cyient TRYathlon to rock, rumble and ride. Quick pit stops, fast acceleration, and smooth handling are key to success in the Time Trial and the Obstacle Rally, whilst the 8 Hour Endurance Trial on the CFA Track is a chance to really stretch the riders' legs. Here we take a quick look at this year's Obstacles and which event is happening where.
It’s 1,500 kilometres from Alice Springs to Maryborough, but it’s just another step on a bigger journey for Centralian Senior College Clontarf Academy team - the first ever team from the Northern Territory to participate in the RACV Energy Breakthrough. Their Team Manager, James McNamee, has quite a history with the event, too.
It's here! Yes, the 2017 Schools Information Kits are ready for download and are packed full of all the details teams will need to know for this year’s RACV Energy Breakthrough.
With the 2017 edition of the RACV Energy Breakthrough fast approaching, we’re announcing some changes to the RACV Track. These include a new layout, the introduction of speed traps, some pit lane changes and a new penalty display system. All of these initiatives are designed to improve the safety of our participants, spectators and event officials.
Over 250 students from 16 schools came together at La Trobe University's Bendigo Campus for a free preparation workshop on 27 October 2017, supported by CYIENT. Check out the photos, learning resources and get a touch of the buzz enjoyed of the day.
Calling all cyclists and runners - you're invited to join the RACV Energy Breakthrough STRAVA club! Created to connect students from schools across Victoria and beyond as they prepare for this year's event in Maryborough. Strava is the social network for athletes, where anyone can upload their physical activities (runs, rides, swims, anything!). They can then give and receive 'kudos' and comments on other friend's activities, too.
The RACV EB have joined forces with La Trobe University and Cyient to hold a special 'Design, Display and Trial' preparation workshop ahead of the 2017 RACV Energy Breakthrough. This free workshop is an invitation for all RACV EB students, teachers and team managers to attend and will be held on the morning of Friday October 27 2017 at the La Trobe University campus in Bendigo.
