Ride Details
A flat ride starting in Gawler and finishing in Gawler.
After leaving Gawler, the ride takes in the full 23 km Stuart O'Grady Bikeway (SOB) alongside the Northern Expressway.
The ride exits the southern end of the SOB and takes a combination of back roads including Mill Rd, Greyhound Rd and Mumford Rd until a left turn onto Heaslip Rd. Heaslip Rd is only ridden for a short distance before a right turn onto Edinburgh Rd takes the route through the Edinburgh Precinct, passing DSTO and the Edinburgh RAAF Base.
A left turn at Bellchambers Rd leads to Andrews Rd before re-entering the SOB via the Petherton Rd gate and returning to Gawler.

Isn't it wonderful to have so much encouragement.........the forecast I saw just before commenting previously had 90% chance t/storms with 30+kph winds (and I was not looking at the Perth forecast!). Looks like they've toned the forecast down a bit. I'm still not sure whether I'll make it - it will probably be a last minute decision either way.

Now now Carl ! What are you going to do without your Sat morning hit??? Below is the latest weather forecast. Does not look like much moisture. Look at the temp though...minimum of 9......that's hot compared to last Sat!! Might just wear knicks and sleveless jersey! Have called Jaspers and told them to buy more beer for Sat!
