After weeks of long training rides I think I deserve a weekend off.

Have no plans as for where to go, just planning on putting the pads on, riding around and having fun.

If you haven't ridden Menai before, be warned it can be tricky in places and a novice rider would probably not enjoy this ride. Having said that you can walk sections if you wish and there's no need to worry about the pace. Like I said this is a rest from training for me so it's going to be slow.

Hope to see you there

Appin - Cheeky couple of laps

When: 
Saturday, 8 August, 2009 - 08:30

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Appin
Meeting Point: 

North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.

Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.

Show on Google maps: Meeting point. Login or register to get directions.

Anyone care to join me for a few laps of Appin, I'll be there. Happy to ride on my jack jones but always good to have company. It'll be a social ride but at a reasonable pace with a break between laps.

I'm coming from the Inner West so 8.30am is really the earliest I care for on a Saturday.

Cheers

Dave
