Sunday Ride – Outer Harbor via Anzac Hwy

 *Sunday Ride – Outer Harbor via Anzac Hwy*

This ride is usually scheduled as hills as it’s the last ride prior to switching to the Winter Schedule. However, the weather forecast for Sunday looks ordinary. In the hope of getting a window this week I have made an executive decision and set a flat beach ride. I am scheduling a weather call. 

Outer Harbor via Anzac Hwy. 

Weather Call: 6:45am via whatsapp

Meet: 7:30 am in the City

Route: Anzac Hwy, Military Rd, Seaview Rd, Military Rd, Esplanade, Outer Harbor, Return the same way. 

Coffee at Glenelg (or Norwood if we think the weather will be an issue)

Return: Anzac Hwy 

Have a great ride. Work and life have been crazy, so I am 4 stages behind on the Giro. No spoilers please.

*This Sundays Ride is Cudlee Creek*

We have wandered way off the Ride Guide again and this was originally scheduled as last week’s ride.  We will head out to Cudlee Creek to enjoy Babette’s cake. Cudlee Creek has a return option to suit everyone. 

The weather looks okay on current forecast.

Meet: 7:30am in the City or 8:00am at the Tower Hotel 

Route:  City, Parade, Tower Hotel, Glen Stuart Rd, Morilata Rd, Stadbroke rd, Gorge Rd, Cudlee Creek

Coffee and Cake: Cuddle Creek

Easy Return: Out and back

Hard Return: Fox Creek

The one thing for sure is we will have better weather than the Giro de Italia.

Sunday’s ride is the shorter beach ride, Outer Harbor via Port Rd. As it is Mothers Day (I triple checked) and people may need to get back this route offers lots of early escapes. The weather looks like a cracker at the time of writing Sunny, 23 degrees and light winds. 

Meet: 7:30 am in the City 

Route: City, Port Rd, Outer Harbor, Glenelg

Coffee at Glenelg

I guess the lessons from the first week of the Giro is to confirm the BG’s long held aversion to white knicks, torrential rain and stray dogs. Mind you it has to the first time I have seen a sprinter hit the barriers and bounce back onto the road rubber side down.  Be good to your Mum’s. Amoreinfinito!

I will set a weather call just in case, but I don’t think it will be required.

Meet: 7:30 am in the City or 8:00 am at the Tower

Route:  Tower, Nortons, Ashton, Basket Range, Forrest Range, Deviation rs, Greenhill Rd

Home via what ever route enables you to grab a bunch of flowers just to say thanks for whatever. Remember the Giro starts on Saturday night.
