The Festive Season Rides

As chosen by Julian

In a fit of madness last week Peter asked if I could pick the rides for this weekend.  Whilst I immediately thought of Gooseberry Hill for Saturday and a 6 climb ride for Sunday, a look at the weather for the weekend suggests I should proceed with care. 

Saturday will see us do the old favourite Ridge Hill Road and we’ll decide on the day if numbers will permit a split of the fast and main groups.

Sunday will see us go up Kalamunda Rd,  initially, then head for the Observatory and finish on Lawnbrook.  There are plenty of short cut options on this should it get above the forecast 33°C.

Monday is a public holiday and its around the river for the recovery ride, with  Johnny volunteering to lead this.  It’s forecast to be 40°C on Monday, so please brings lots of water.  Would there be any interest in starting it earlier??

 Finally, if anyone wants to choose the rides for the first weekend of 2010, please let me know.

  1. is anyone doing/ leading the novice ride on saturday??? Merry Christmas…

    i was seriously thinking about doing a morning ride tomorrow, but i think i’ll bail out on that due to the lack of sleep the last few nights.

  2. Ronan, prob not the only 1 thinking it but more than likely the only 1 to suggest it.
    BTW if anyone is near Busselton this wknd let me know, i’ll be heading out Sunday morning.
