We will regroup at designated points along the way. Please remeber to bring 2 water bottles, food, spare tube & pump and most importantly some $ for a coffee at the end of the ride. The Full of Beans cafe in the Suncourt courtyard is a great spot plenty of places to park the bike, plenty of seating and very sheltered.
Speed ranges from 25 - 30kmph and distances of 70 - 100 + km. These rides are a great way to experience the beauty of our district, and its always more fun riding with a group. These rides are a social pedal, not a race, which gives local cyclists an opportunity to gather together for a pleasant Sunday morning ride.
Both these rides are designed to finish at approx 10.30am thanks to Full of Beans cafe, Suncourt, Tamamutu Street, for coffee, please bring change for this
Everybody welcome.
