This Sat. (26/6/10) Leaving L'ton Casino car park (AT) 9:00 am for a lap through Longford, Powranna, Cressy, Bishopbourne, Longford and back to the Casino car park. http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/Fun-Ton
103k's, mostly flat. Looking for a riding companion. Not planning a fast ride, this will be my first 100k ride. Planning stop at Longford bakery (AT) the 82k mark, and possibly a quick stop (AT) the 21k mark as well.
Happy to meet up somewhere along the way if that suits you better, but as I said this will not be a fast ride. Hope to average 23-25 kph, with stop/s I plan to take about 5 hours all up.
Reply here or PM me.

Spork,a lap through Longford, Powranna, Cressy, Bishopbourne, Longford
Cressy to Bishopsbourne is all up hill. Not a steep climb but fairly long (phew).
I usually ride in the opposite direction.
I normally ride Longford, Bishopsbourne, Bracknell, Cressy, Longford on the weekends.
Will probably be out there Saturday morning, but I usually leave about 8am.
100k is too big a leap for me yet. Still trying to crack 50k.
Ill wave as you go by

Good ride at Richmond today. Seven riders, beautiful sunshine, and of course Richmond Bakery on our return. One of the riders was a visitor from Ballarat, Rodney, on a flat bar bike with MTB type wheels. He visits every year. I hope he never brings his road bike; we could be in for a caning!RobRollin wrote:Very cool Cam, I will be taking it easy with Saturdays race coming up.

Cam, why not join the DOME riders for pretty much the same ride, same time -- except it starts at DOME in Sandy Bay. I hope to be there.Cam wrote:Granton Return tomorrow morning.
