That headwind would have been brutal, I bet some were wishing that the ride had been on last weekend, you wouldn't have hardly had to turn the pedals!!
There is the Ipswich 100 coming up on Sunday April 13th.
Coot-Tha Challenge is in May (later than recent years)
The past couple of years has been the 7Pillars ride sometime in ? May
Brisbane to the Bay is June
Brisbane to the Gold Coast is ? October sometime
Robbie McEwan's Gran Fondo Ride is ? September
That what comes to mind at the moment and there's probably more.

Was hard enough getting around at 8:30, saw some of the signs for this and knew there would be some hard peddling ahead later. Almost got blown off going round one of the roundabouts in Scarborough and pushing 25 on the bridge was a struggle was glad to make it over and find some respite.
In addition to that list, there is also the Buderim 9 in December usually plus last year this link is broken did a ride in the tweed in November

Just chiming in to second this. My first "big" ride was the Ipswich 50 last year. It was a nice ride and not too crowded. It's on early April. Next I did the Brissie to Bay in June. A few more people but had a few more skills so a nice ride too. And then proud to complete the Brissie to Gold Coast in October. And this from someone new to road biking and, I suspect, just a few years older than you.

Venus - oh wow bne to Goldie in first year of cycling?! That's great, would love to do something like that! Don't think I'll be quite good enough this year though.
Wish I was here in apricot do the ippy one, unfortunately I'm away on holidays.. Will def put it in for next year.
I think it was a blessing not doing the Sunday ride, I had injured my back (catching a cheerleader) and was on ohysio table x2 last thurs/fri... Feeling much better now and can't wait to do more rides!

I started cycling Feb last year and I rode the same as Venus62 ... I completed the 66km Brisbane to Ipswich, then the 100km Brissie to Bay and then Brissie to Gold Coast plus commute to start.Venus62 wrote:Just chiming in to second this.

Not to sure how the bike will cope riding on the back of the car, it's only ever done that once to the LBS... I will ride home from the finish though.

Why the heck does the train leave from Carseldine instead of Zilmere or Geebung? Think they just want to make us ride a few more k's

Easier to access and location.myforwik wrote:Its about a 45km each way commute to the hospital for me, so I am thinking of parking somewhere in between the hospital and carseldine so I only have to do an extra 10km.
