SUN 26 BIG HILLS

Early Start this week 7.30am IN THE CITY and 8am @ the TOWER HOTEL. Only 7 more weeks till Amy’s Ride so this week we are headed for the hills with the Norton’s TT last week, a good warm up to what is an easier then it looks ride to Hahndorf. To clench the thirst of the mountain goats amongst us we've included a departure from the usual Hahndorf ride to include the Forest Range climb. This is a killer and for those with little climbing in the legs this season should avoid by way of the Range Rd short cut from Basket Range to Carey Gully, and skip the Jones Rd Route from Balhannah to Hahndorf taking the Amberside Rd route. We'll nominate two group leaders, one for each route to make sure all don't get lost. Will post map my ride maps when complete. FS - all complaints should be directed to Brian!
