Dulwich Hill Bicycle Club

Amy's Gran Fondo is on Sep every year. It's at beautiful and picturesque Lorne in Victoria, 110k's, closed roads and a great ride.

I'll be there and I think Trouty will come too. Accommodation books out pretty quick so get on it if you want to ride.

Entries open on 1st April - it sold out last year. https://www.facebook.com/AmysGranFondo

And you get the chance to win a UCI medal and qualify to ride the World Masters if you come in the top 25% of your age group (if you're 30 or older of course). For me that means I needed to be 45 mins faster than I was last time

Here's the course (there's a hill) >> http://amysgranfondo.gofundraise.com.au/cms/thecourse

Hey Stuart.

I'm planning on doing this too.

Ive just got to work out details and then i'll register.

Great - I think the 1st April thing could be a joke. I'm looking at houses now.

Entries have opened. Earlybird is $189 >> http://amysgranfondo.org.au/

Ive registered.
MY 50th is the next day and Ive got relatives down there so I'll be sorting my own accomodation.
Always wanted to do this so I'm glad ive taken the plunge and committed to this.

Thanks for the heads up Stuart.

bump: anybody else getting down to Lorne for Amy's? looking at booking a table at the pub on the Sun night following the ride for dinner for anyone interested. Trouty & I are there with Donna and Paul too. beejay - Interested in dinner? (who are you really?)

I'l be there, but flying back Sunday night.

So when are you arriving Craig? We're there from Fri night to Mon. Lets go riding on Sat or a dinner Sat night? We're staying in an apartment on the Western side of town, past the pub.

I'm going to this btw - failed to tell anyone. Have so far organised little. Must get onto it. But dinner at the pub sounds good.

Although you did win free car hire Eleri!

OK Eleri, I've added you to the booking.

Hi Stuart,

I'm only down Satruday evening, staying in Geelong with a mate from uni days. Whirlwind tour this one, got a fair bit on at the same time. Maybe a few beers after the ride Sunday?

Although you did win free car hire Eleri!
