Sunday Ride - No Excuses - Fathers Day

This Sundays ride is the No Excuses ride Outer Harbor Via Port Road. We had great numbers last Sunday so looking forward to the warmer weather getting people out.

Meet in the City at 8:00 am

Last week was the last ride on the Winter Schedule and we return to the usual Beach/Hills alternation from this week. We have made a couple of changes to the Ride Guide to make the return to the hills more approachable.

  • the 9th of September will swap from Cudlee Creek/Birdwood  to Hahndorf in order to satisfy the Strudel cravings
  • the Meadows Loop is pushed back  2 weeks to the 28th of October 
  • The TDU reconnaissance will need to be discussed as the actual route is not pleasant for a small group as it travels along Main South Rd  
Yeah I know Fathers day is kinda of a excuse, Sorry for not updating the Blog I have been offline.

Sunday Ride - Anything can Happen

This Sunday was meant to mark the end of the Winter Ride schedule with us heading back into the Hills to Hahndorf. However as we slogged it back to Glenelg from Outer Harbor into the wind/gale on Sunday it was mentioned that this was perhaps the outcome of ride planning done in the comfort of a warm day in March and a glass of chilled Riesling. The consensus was we need to ease back into Hills and give people who havent ridden through winter a chance to start coming out again.

Hence I will take a cue from Canberra and perform a back-flip. This Sunday's Ride will be a Anything can Happen ride.

Meet in the City at 8:00 am 

If the Weather is as good as the forecast we may include an optional Hill at the end.

The Vuelta Espana begins the weekend. Stage 9 looks interesting

Believe or not we are rapidly closing in on Spring and this week marks the last ride of the official Winter Schedule. We head back into the hills next week with (weather permitting) with a Hahndorf run. 

For those that have been Hibernating over winter here is a quick refresher course 

This is a Bicycle, we get up on Sunday mornings and ride it with the BG's

This was a Bicycle a few years ago, Graham has been riding one in Queensland

This is also a Bicycle...Try riding one with the BG's, we dare you, we double dare you

I had a call from the Veloce Paninoteca Coffee shop that closed on us the day of the Anniversary. They apologised for the inconvenience and I said I would raise it with the group if we wanted to return.
