So far I've entered the 140km Rainforest Ride & Arthurs Seat ride and trying to enter Hotham challenge (200km) once I work out how to put in the promo code :S. Agree - Gran Fondo looks good - but prefer more climbing :-). Also trying to organize an informal ride for Mt Macedon on Feb 16 or 17: http://www.bicycles.net.au/forums/viewt ... 14&t=60922" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
