sorry about the link but there's a bike path along the ipswich motorway, you then join the centenary mwy bike way then the safest way would be to cut through the back of bardon and ashgrove

man up and take the Pine Mtn Rd/Fernvale/Back of Glorious option. Both of them are at least, much more scenic, and/or much more fun.

He shouldn't be worried about the hills, compared to the hills that LDR knows on the Sunny Coast these Bardon hills are nothing.jasonc wrote:seriously LDR, if you're worried about the hills, do my route. be much less traffic (off road bike paths for a lot more of it)
Bigger problem would be taking the wrong turn and getting lost.
We could meet him along the way and act as his guides.

I've got that experience front and centre in my mind .singlespeedscott wrote:Good luck and ride safe mate. Don't do any stupid efforts on the hills like the last long ride we did. I won't be there to drag your ass home afterwards
Looking forward to the Strava update.

Just think of how fresh you will be for the chase, that's of course, if the wind doesn't hammer you.

Thanks, sad but interesting.ldrcycles wrote:Just out of interest for anyone who frequents the Lockyer Valley- http://shoplockyer.com.au/shop-my-town/ ... -dont-help" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
BTW, you should get yourself a racing licence and have a go at the race that goes up that road and finishes in Warwick. (Cunningham Classic)
You would enjoy it and probably give your mates at Data 3 and UpperLimb a run for it.

I threw in Mayfield Road for some laughs. It's a beast of a climb https://www.strava.com/routes/2248056" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Another route could be Cedar Creek and back through Eatons Crossing or Winn Road/Clear Mountain out to Bracken Ridge/Deagon and back via the Bikeway or Sandgate Road??
