Canberra Day weekend BBQ/Ride
Postby Robdog » Fri Feb 05, 2010 10:03 pm
What I'm after is some expressions of interest, and suggestions for time/place/distance/route are more than welcome

I thought that it would be a good opportunity to meet and greet other members of the forum as well, plus I've already had a brief discussion with a couple members who think Saturday is the go, which also leaves you free to do both in the weekend if you so choose

The BBR is only 20k's and looks like a very social pace. I think I'll be giving it a miss at 30 bux a head too.
I'd like to try and cater for everyone's needs if possible but if there isn't much interest, It'd probably be better to just sort out some smaller rides among ourselves.
How about I say please post your preferred day, time and ride length

It would be good if they put up actual stats on the website, as well as the online form that was "coming soon", but never did.

Yep - I was pretty surprised when I thought he said 1500. Mind you, the evil twins were being quite noisy at the time.ifixbikes wrote:I doubt it would of been 1500, maybe 150. Last year on a beautiful warm sunny morning they had about 700 riders. I know they have been trying to crack 1000 riders over the last couple of years, but from what I have heard they have never reached 800.
