Penriff is blessed with a few things. One of which is in the areas slogan "The Gateway to the Blue Mountains". Yep, it's claim to fame is that it is on the way to something better.
Something else that Penriff is blessed with is decent bike shops. You've got Blackmans, Panther Cycles and Lifecycles. All those shops run group rides of various forms so they might be a good place to check in with.
I spend a lot of time lurking around the MTB trails of the middle and lower mountains (and some in the upper mountains when the weather is less fresh). Lots of people ride road up that way too.

I have had a look at bunch ride finder . com and there seems to be one departing from Gloria Jeans on the Nepean River 7am Saturday mornings.
I'll give the organiser a call later today and see if they are still going ahead or they have folded.
I might let the Tri guys do what they do best. Ride really fast
Just need to get over this chest infection and I'll be sweet.
Thanks for your help Leximack.

Check out Penrith Cycling Club, lots of riders. Should be able to find a social outing easily.
