Sunday Ride - Beach Ride

 

 The TDF is over for another year so hopefully we are all catching up on some sleep. We will have to wait till Dan is out on a Sunday to get a full discussion of Slovenian cycling dominance. It’s the Å truklji (rolled dumplings) in my opinion. 

Anyway, Sundays Ride is a Beach Ride slightly modified to account for the Bay to Birdwood leaving from West Beach. 

Meet in the City at 7:30am 

Route is Anzac Highway, Outer Harbor with Coffee at Henley, Home TBD.

SUNDAY IS ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN

Evening All

This Sunday is nominally a surf and turf, however the weather is, at this point, looking quite unpredictable.

On this basis, we will call it as an anything can happen, and meet in the city. If the weather looks good, we may continue with the original plan. If it is less favorable, we'll stay on the flats.

Meet in the City at 7.30am.

See you Sunday.

SUNDAY IS HALLETT COVE

 Good Evening All

I trust you have all appraised yourselves of the new ride guide, booking in your highlights for the year. Don't worry, you'll best tested on it soon.

This Sunday, we're heading to Hallett Cove.

Gui has decided that having on ear pierced by a magpie is insufficient, so can come back to see if he can get the other one done.

I won't be be there due to family commitments in the Barossa, and Aldo won't either for similar reasons.

No matter, we have appointed a new road captain:

Pin on cycling


Meet in the city at 7.30am.

Coffee at Glenelg.

See you next Sunday.

Sunday Ride Program 2020/21

 All 

Here is the Ride Guide for 2020 /21.

In general we have kept what works, tried to avoid the clangers and added some variety.

Coffee Stops 

  • We have noted that a lot of our regular coffee stops especially in the Hills have been getting slower and fuller. We will be looking at branching out in search of quicker coffee and may be looking at City returns if the hills stops are too full.

Whats Changed

  • Not much
  • The Two Coffee stop ride has proved popular so we have tried to include more rides where this is an option
  • Christmas and New Years fall mid week so we have scheduled Beach rides for the relevant Sundays
  • Anything can happens are scheduled for the 5th Sunday of a month where that occurs or where a major event requires a bit of planning
  • Heritage round is scheduled for an early February beach ride.
