Anyone doing it this year?

He's pretty handy actually for someone who doesnt use clips or cleats.
I suppose some trains get crowded out, but last year the one i caught sometime (after a swim and breaky) wasn't full.Is it possible to a seat on trains on the way back probably around 11 to 1pm?

When it comes to trains top tip. Head south then head north.

Having my first go this year. Thinking about rolling back to Brisbane depending on how I'm feeling.
Is the easiest way back to Brisbane to double back and use the same route? Are the roads decent?

I have incorporated the "Whinge Stick" into our plans so that should spice it up towards the end.

I normally follow the same route back to Beenleigh then head across through Bethania to head back to my area of Brisbane. (SW suburbs).
