Mods, any chance of putting this up as a sticky? Have a group ride list at the top of the Tas. forum would be handy. Anyone want to second?

So just did the Richmond Lunch Ride for the first time in about six years. Looking to do it more often, leaving the flannelette curtain (Moonah-ish) around 11am one day a weekend. If you're looking for a slower moving (avg 24km/h) mercifully casual ride with a couple of Cat 3 climbs then feel free to PM me.

The inaugural Dodges Ferry Bakery Thursday ride takes place this week :-) Leaving Dodges Ferry Bakery at 10.00 am sharp and heading down to Primrose Sands via the back road, we do the Primrose loop and return to Dodges Ferry bakery. For those willing to bring the distance up to 50ks, an additional loop through Lewisham is on offer :-)

The Dodges Ferry Bakery Thursday Ride has been bedded in, and is now a regular event every Thursday, departing at 9am from the Bakery in the heart of town. The starting time has been permanently amended to 9am to allow people an opportunity to preserve the afternoon for other activities, even work :D

The DFBTR has evolved a bit since we first kicked off. A new regular route sees us head to Sorell, Penna, Fingerpost, Richmond, Midway Point and back to Dodges Ferry Bakery for coffee. 74kms. A loop through Carlton makes it a nice round 80 ks. We are not restricted to Thursdays, so just PM me or Master 6 if you want to nominate a time that suits.

Yes... And after some months of trial, the distance covered by the various routes is between 50-65kms (9.00 AM start). Keeping it reasonable in order to accommodate those with plans for the rest of the day.

Sunday Cremorne 7:30am. Medium Pace 2 coffee stops around 100kms"


This ride has mutated into a main departure (and conclusion) from The Sandbar, 534 South Arm Road, Lauderdale, 0800hrs, Sundays. Same core of chronic cycling fanatics though.

Bazza's Friday Bash, aka Cornelian Bay Friday Ride, seems to have bedded in as a permanent fixture. Even in poor weather, and occasional conflicts with other cycling events, it still seems to draw 5-10 riders each week. Rides depart from the car park opposite the Cornelian Bay public facilites/BoatHouse Restaurant. Departure: 0900hrs, normally heading up the Intercity bike track to Granton, Brighton, Tea Tree Road to Richmond for coffee, returning over Grasstree Hill, Bowen Bridge, Cornelian Bay. Medium paced, stopping for mechanicals and flats.

Bazza's Friday Bash is currently operating as Grand Départs, with Friday rides notified by the Strava Club Discussion Board. Baz himself is currently operating largely as a Mountain Biker, so a chance to witness his extraordinary skills are considerably diminished.
