Tru Blu Racing

Recently some of our riders had the opportunity to ride with the BlueShift team at the Australian International Pedal Prix.

Whilst the end result of the race was very disappointing for the team (a comprehensive report and photos can be viewed at the BlueShift website), our team members had a (mostly) enjoyable weekend and would like to thank the entire BlueShift crew for the opportunity to ride with one of the most successful and respected teams in HPV racing.

Some great in/on vehicle footage was caught by the team over the weekend:

Both videos capture in great detail what high-speed HPV racing is like from the rider's perspective.

With Tru Blu Racing not competing in any races in 2011, some of our riders have opted to temporarily jump ship to keep the legs ticking over in preparation for the 2012 season. Rhys, Wade and Paul joined forces with the Blueshift Racing Team, who rode to victory at Round 2 of the Australian HPV Super Series on the weekend.

For the fourth year in a row, the Tru Blu Racing team made the long trip across the border to Murray Bridge to compete in the Australian International Pedal Prix. The AIPP is undoubtedly the toughest race on the HPV calendar, and there was even more at stake for the team this year, as we were competing not only for the race win, but also for the overall series victory. As always there was high drama for all teams involved, as the weather was unusually bad and the competition was tough.

The Tru Blu Racing team has finished their 2010 HPV season in style, completing a Super Series hat-trick by winning the Australian International Pedal Prix in Murray Bridge at the weekend.
