Now you know. LA has been popping up these mass rides through his Twitter account for a while now, so no surprise that he'd do one in Adelaide. Shame that he'll be on a private jet and won't make a stop in Sydney on his return. He doesn't know what he will miss.bunchridefinder wrote:Yeh I'm spewing, I booked my flights for the 20th!

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?

If you ignore the informality of Twitter for a moment and consider the route, then it looks organised to me. There's room at the reserve for many thousands of people, the route up the coast is pretty much dual carriageway most of the way, etc. Not sure that much else is needed, beyond alerting the Orange Spot bakery to continuously run the ovens for 24 hours beforehandRichard.L wrote:I dont mean to be a whinger but should this just be abit more organized? like average speed and numbers be mentioned?

Im sure they would handle that quite well since Im fairly sure Robbie has a very good bmx background. (I seem to recall he was age group national champ or something when younger). Would still be awesome to see them do itbmxbuds wrote:The only bikes that we have are bmx... we'd love to ride with Lance and Robbie but we are going to be dwarfed. How bout they come out to 'the Cove' to the track and see how we go... love to have him try our sport !! The track is in great shape for the State Championships and there are a lot of riders going to be there for the Metro Series races on sunday.

Should we have a sweep for the attendance? I'll go 4,000.

Will go for 5,500.
Which source will be the "official" count, given they will all be pure guesses?
Sunday Mail? If so, I revise my entry to 11,500 to take the 'hysteric reporting' factor into account.....
