Typing Druid Cycling into Mr Google yields pictures of mountain bikes. Nice but.

Sundays Ride - Return to the Hills

This Sundays Ride is the Hills ride held over from last week. The weather looks fantastic 23 degrees, light winds. 

Make the effort to get out. This is the first ride in the Hills so we will make sure we regroup at the top of the climbs and major turns.

The Ride is the modified Pain Lives Here loop to allow for a cafe stop at Uraidla. Coffee comes up way to soon on the standard loop so we have added extensions.

Vuelta 2019

The climbs on this years Vuelta have been ridiculous. This was stage 13, 27% on a goat track.

Stage 13, Pinches of 27%

Sunday Ride - Winters last kick

This week was meant to be the first ride back into the Hills after winter. I have holding off posting Sundays ride in the vain hope that the weather forecast might improve. Instead it has gotten worse. 

So instead of a Hills ride we will do a Beach ride by consensus in the Morning:

Meet in the City at 8:00 am

If the weather gives us a window we may do close hills. 

The weather and all the other things in life have been conspiring against us getting good numbers out. Let's see if we can get the BG's rebooted for the new season. If you have a mate that might like to ride please invite them along.
