Re: Adventure Ride Blue Mountains 3rd route 100k 6am Sun 19

I think I'm good to go, though I confess to having a perverse notion of turning around and riding home so don't book a table place for me. It seems like a good idea now but this may change.
No worries Philip.

Hi All, The next Adventure Ride goes west to Springwood via Windsor. I did this ride in 2010 with Stanmore Cycles and it's a nice ride and change of scenery. The route is in the second post of this thread. It is undulating to Seven Hills (ok, maybe short hills) and then flat to Windsor where we'll s...

Monday 29/4- Easy Kurnell

Hi All,

Since the weather will be nice and I've got time I'm going to ride out to Kurnell in the morning to clock up some more k's.
I'm going via the bike path and back streets and will be rolling along around 30kph on the road.
I'll leave MRC at 6:30.

Anyone interested?

Anzac Day RNP 6:30 near Middies pace

Hi All,

I was chatting with Anthony I this morning and neither of us were keen for a 5:30 roll out tomorrow.

We will be departing MRC at 6:30 and riding around Middies pace (not chasing Strava PR's) :)

NB: this is not a club sanctioned ride.

Cheers,
Mark

6:30 start, RNP:
