I would like to come along on this ride, but I don't know the area too well.
Could someone please post a map here, or even a street address that I could look up in my directory?
(I mean to the carpark that you are going to meet at)

Thanks, and I will see you there.

A.

The carpark is on the corner of seaview rd & the southern end of the esplanade at Henley beach south.

Hope we see you there.

Thanks Dr Gonzo

See you soon!

I'm sure the actual route is probably a bit different, but from the description I made a rough map:

A wee bit different but that's essentially the triangle - very few roads in my route and I'm certainly no fan of playing on main roads

Pretty much beach front all the way to just past the Glenelg North marina, then turn up to the Pat, across the barrages and some back streets to the very end of the Sturt River path. Skips Anzac Highway and the lunatics in Glenelg itself all together. Similarly, I'm no fan of Port Road in front of Coca-cola so I go through Bonython Park itself. The only sticking point might be the new overpass on Henley Beach Rd - you could get through there on a path when I was there a few weeks back but it is a construction area and things keep changing.

I like my rides relaxed and seeing it's out first time together, we'll keep it that way (the request WAS for a 'casual' ride.

Hmm, I'd better start loading the van. See you all there

Damnit. I got held up going through the city and by the time I made it to Henley everyone had left

I ended up doing a quick Linear Park run and heading home.

Oh well...I'll be better organised next time.

!! BAN ME NOW FOR SWEARING !! !
Sorry we missed you khendar, we waited until 10 past one before we left.
There was myself, Europa, dr.gonzo, and woteva
It was a good ride, about 30kms in all, Richards bent got plenty of looks
We will do it again im sure

Sorry I didnt make it guys......i was too tired from my morning ride.....

Spinning is going to take some time to get used to

Excellent ride, great way to spend a Sunday arvo.

Thanks to those who made it & to those who didnt, see you next time.

BTW Richard, Gee you get a good pace up on that bent!

Now, who's going to organise the next ride??

Tell me when it is and I'll be there. Sorry to have missed this one.

It was a fun afternoon, despite the flat tyre

Yup, we need to do another one. Someone with a good route and a useful day, put it up and we'll be there

Richard

I'm in!

A.

Do you want to meet in the city & head up the linear trail this time? then maybe do a loop back on the road??

That sounds good.

We could leave from the city, go up one side of the Torrens, to the bottom of Gorge rd. and down the other, or up the O-Bahn to TTP or a combination of both.

We could decide on the day.

A.

somethings come up & i wont be able to make it tomorrow.
Maybe next week!

I'm tied up too, and next week.

Richard
