Ride Details An undulating ride starting in Gawler and finishing in Gawler.
After leaving Gawler, the ride joins onto the Gawler Bypass before linking up with the Gawler-Kapunda Rd. A right turn at Roseworthy Rd leads to a short section of the Sturt Highway before the undulations of Gomersal Rd continue the ride towards Tanunda.
A left turn at the end of Gomersal Rd leads to the picturesque entrance of Tanunda where Murray St is ridden through the town centre and continues along the Barossa Valley Way towards Nuriootpa. A right turn on South Tce followed by a left turn onto The Crescent, leads to the start of the 6.5 km Nuriootpa to Angaston Bike Path.
The Bike Path eventually reaches Washington St in Angaston where a left turn connects with Sturt St and leads to Murray St.
A right turn onto Penrice Rd leads to Nuriootpa's main street where a right turn onto Gawler St soon becomes Greenock Rd, which eventually reaches the small hamlet of Greenock itself.
A right turn onto Kapunda Rd exits Greenock and directs the route to its intersection with the Gawler-Kapunda Rd, where a left turn starts the return journey to Gawler.
Nearing Gawler, a left turn on the Main North Rd loops back to the Gawler Bypass which is ridden until The Two Wells Rd exit, signifying the last section of the ride and the return into Gawler.
IMPORTANT
The Gawler Wheelers Group Ride Guidelines and Group Ride Recommendations must be read prior to attending a Group Ride Event.

I'll join the shorter option this weekend - intend riding with the Gully Grinders to Paracombe on Sunday, so need to conserve a bit of energy. Maybe next time......

Am keen to do this ride Wilson. But also don't want to slow you fast guys down. Maybe we can come to an arrangement that you don't wait any longer than you and your mates want to, before heading off on the next leg? Maybe we can divide into two sub groups for this route - the 'fast' and the 'not-so-fast'? With a bit of luck there will be a few others like myself that know they are not up to your speeds, but still want to do the 100km, and not feel bad about holding the fast ones back. That way I won't be completely on my own out there. I don't really want to get into any close formation drafting on this one either, so I can do justice to the scenery. Any other takers for the 'not-so-fasts'?

I'm supposed to be on a plane to KL on Saturday, so I should actually be a "no" for this ride, as much as I would love to be a part of it (the route looks fabulous). However, if they continue chucking tear gas canisters around central KL as I've seen on the news, maybe work will reconsider sending us over there, in which case, I'll see you - hence the "maybe" response!
