Thursday Rides
Thursday rides originally started as a loop on local cycleways doing about
10km. As the riders have become stronger and more experienced, this has
progressed into 20 - 30km, easy to medium rides, which is currently the
case. Ride destinations and routes may be varied by ride leaders on the
day due to the circumstances. New riders
may prefer a short easy 10km ride, so please advise us by
calling Doug on 0411 615 867 two days prior to the ride.
Riders meet at 9:15am for a 9.30am start all year round.
Bring your own bike, helmet & spare tube/puncture repair kit
or hire from the club. Ride is free. Make sure you contact the club first;
ring Joe on 0403 323 273 or the clubhouse phone 0418 954 682 on the day.
