Event Description

Your first ride with Gator Cycling means a free coffee at the end of the ride at Milano coffee shop !

Gator Cycling invites all cyclists to join them on a ride down South.

Laurie has put up another ride route on the table for us to try and I've gota say it looks a good one.

From Milanos up Hutt St right onto South tce up Anzac hwy .

L at Colley tce following the coast to Hallet Cove train station.

Cross the train line and follow the path to Hallet Cove shopping centre.

Nth along Lonsdale rd

R at Majors rd and follow it over Sth rd to Blacks rd.

L at Murray Hill rd thru Coromandel Valley to Blackwood.

Down Belair rd past Windy Point and coffee time at Milanos.

Join us on a friendly non threatening group ride from Glover playground cnr of East tce and Wakefield St .

With designated catch up points along the route means no fear of being left behind . The group rides at an average speed of 25 to 30 km an hour. If this seems like your type of ride come along .

8:30am meet for an 9am leave from Glover playground .

Comment by Ryan Kelley on June 11, 2012 at 18:59: Scott's ride report ......

Bright sunny skies greeted us to take on Lauries ride route . Ugg boots and ski gloves would have been nice but eventually we all warmed up . It was great to have a couple of new faces join us , Paul and Roger after seeing our rides advertised on AC . Nice flat ride until we made to Hallet Cove then the fun began , hills . Once past Hallet Cove train station and up lonsdale rd thankfully things leveled out until Blacks rd where the fun began again thru Coromandel Valley . Regrouping at Murray Hills rd Laurie assured us their wasn't too many more hills , of course we didn't believe him. After pushing through the pain barrier we all made to Blackwood where the real fun part of the morning came . The downhill of Windy Point !

Photo's of the ride can be seen here

Back to the nice flat from there back to the great taste of Milanos coffee.

Great ride by everyone , see you all next week for the AC winter ride.

Comment by Lawrie Nicholas on June 10, 2012 at 21:43: Eventually is the key word. I thought Scotty would have told you not to trust me.

Comment by Lawrie Nicholas on June 10, 2012 at 20:34: I'm glad you guys enjoyed the ride. It was great to see a couple of new faces out. We enjoyed their company. Hopefully see you out with us again soon. May catch up next week at the Winter Ride. May even see Ryan out next week.No Hills next week.

Comment by Jurgen Klus on June 10, 2012 at 20:28: Good ride today, especially with the sun out to welcome the "new" riders along a new course. Lawrie's famous last words "all down hill from here on guys..." yeah, right...eventually!
