Sweet deals I think. Jump on them now.
At any time other than Retro Riverloop Raturday, yes.GTRmon7 wrote:Not a fan? What about just the 17 Mile Rocks section of the ride?

It's like wearing fake Armani - you'd know you weren't doing the loop, and you'd feel ashamed. So I'm told. I've not worn fake Armani before.
So, that thread I was talking about....

That's pretty funny, because Arec Baaawin appears occasionally on RaturdaysGTRmon7 wrote:I feel so ronery right now

Dude, I think you're misunderstanding the Raturday way. This is a fun ride at a slow to moderate pace. If you want to smash the 17 Mile Rocks, there is a perfectly good ride leaving the Guitar Gym at 6am on Wednesday mornings.GTRmon7 wrote:Still think we should have a crack at 17 Mile Rocks
Great idea but too big for me, especially at this time of year.GTRmon7 wrote:................................................. Brisbane Gran Fondo? The greatest Brisbane ride ever? Incorporating the ULTIMATE river loop!

Who's keen?!
Net ride would be over 100km. But the advantage of coming back to West End is that it gives people a chance to finish the ride early if they're not up for the full challenge. Seriously, who's up for the greatest ride ever?
