well apparently it is a public holiday this weekend. didn’t see that one coming so i was hoping to take advantage of it, but unfortunately there is a list of jobs that need completing.
so to make up for my loss we will be gaining some kilometres.
saturday will see the pack split at the foothills of kalamunda with the main group shortcutting across to ridgehill rd and the fast group doing gooseberry hill. what fun. luckily we get to come home via guilford rd where there should be a nice tailwind to blow you home.
sunday and we get to put in some extra kms as well. taking in some of the more scenic hills and valleys around roleystone bedfordale and kalamunda. make sure you bring plenty of food and drink. there will be shortcuts for those that need it. however there are six climbs for those chasing mountain points.
monday will follow the standard public holiday route with and extended trip around the river. chance of a shower predicted, but it is the first day of winter so it should not be a surprise.

Woo hoo…
Long weekend ride-o-rama!!!
114kms of pleasure on Sunday too 🙂
Not feeling so bad about deciding to give Menzies a miss after all!
Blah so its only Me and Matty staking our claim to 15K in prize money in Kal…
Have a good ride in Kal… I was contemplating group C1 but due to serious lack of riding (less than normal 100kms a week is a good week) I am not making the trip up Norf… Perhaps next year…
Enjoy….
Good luck, Nico and Matt (after you missed all the fun of the State titles). Hope the wind is at your back.
Just a small point ff; I think the Goldfields are to the east. Probably just as well you aren’t going.
mike, you have seen how well fynn goes at navigating during the saturday rides. does not listen to instructions at the best of times. maybe we should all pitch in and buy him a gps for christmas. at least when the fast group takes off, they won’t get lost when they follow him.
Google Maps Peter – Google Maps 😉
Do’oh, very remiss of me..
Make mine a Garmin 705 please..
Google maps will, of course, make you climb faster up Gooseberry Hill too Lisa 😉
