Meet: 8:00 am at the Tower

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

Coffee at Uraidla

Return negotiated at coffee

Sunday is the first day of Winter and despite last weekends severe weather finally arriving about 1am Monday we have great riding so lets make the most of it. See you Sunday.

I am still only up to Stage 8 of the Giro. So everyone can bring me up to speed.

The Giro has been interesting so far with lots of Albanian dogs and goats getting involved on what I have to say were some spectacular roads.

One day it will be your last bike ride but it will not be this Sunday. See you then

Sundays Ride is Cudlee Creek 11/05

 

Sundays Ride is Cudlee Creek 11/05

It’s the start of the Giro de Italia this weekend so as BG tradition dictates it’s a hills ride and its Cudlee Creek to enjoy some really good cake. Cudlee Creek has a return option to suit everyone. 

The weather looks like low 20’s and calm winds on current forecast.

The Giro is straight into the Hills and Mountains but as per usual the big stuff is in the last week. As its the Giro there are lots of medium mountains before we get there. Should make good watching as Podacar is looking merely super human. As always I will try to teach everyone an Italian phrase that you had better never use in public.
