Well it depends on what you have to do during the day. Weedays I work so I ride at 5:30am meet up with a few guys and ride 'til 7:00am, then its off to work. Weekends will vary but if you have a family then a 5hr ride in the middle of day is going to have an impact for my family, so I have to be flexible. On the weekend I ride at all times depending on circumstances. Riding early in the morning allows me to get in a full day of other duties. Lawns don't mow themselves you know!brettjames wrote:ok, DOES anyone here start riding AFTER 9am ?

Robbie, I always bring water up to know, but I'm going to be experimenting with energy drinks. I also bring muesli bars and banana's on rides of more than 40km's.

Red, Pinarello Sestriere, 2000
Trek 1500 ultegra gear, 2005
given the choice, would you rather share the roads with a woman texting in her four-wheel-drive, a manic truckie, a boy in a grey-import turbo, or a cyclist?

Its lucky that the TDU stage will go through here, so Ive sort of been basing most of my rides through Woodside. And also trying to avoid the magpies! Just need to build up the km's, and would be nice to manage some good hills, hence Fox Creek practice.

Im from the otherside of town so dont know that area too well... care to descripe your loop? or is it on bikely? would be keen to head out there on the weekend and go for a ride....Wino wrote:Yeah, Woodside. Some of the back roads are great, low traffic, beautiful scenery. Some days its just great to be on the bike - today probably wasnt one of them.

this is a loop ride which I like to do to Lobethal. It runs parallel to Fox Creek and goes to Cudlee Creek but still a good ride nonetheless with good rolling hills

or if u like a bigger challenge with more rolling hills

Why drive when you can ride.
Shut up legs.
