via http://v-mobile.org.au/forum/showthread.php?t=3373Hi all. Just be aware that the roadworks on Cotter road have now opened the new bridge on the Stromlo side of Streeton drive.
The road is wide enough to ride on but on the temporary section there are large piles of loose pebbles outside the car tyre lines which are very sketchy if you ride over them. The path is a better option until you get to the road where they have created a nice path to ride on but unfortunately that is made from loose gravel too. I don't know where they expect road bikes to ride.
So if you're heading out that way just take care especially if you're barelling through there on Monday for Amy's Ride.
Good luck to those doing the Amy's ride!
