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 Road for the straight run out towards Freeling.

A left turn at Gray St leads to Freeling's town centre where it will be possible to have a short break.

The ride continues in a westerly direction to Templers and Wasleys before returning to Gawler via Kangaroo Flat along Mallala Rd, passing Roseworthy College along the way.

Mallala Rd eventually becomes Redbanks Rd and a right turn at the large roundabout leads back to the Gawler Bypass via a short section of Weyland Rd.

The Two Wells Rd exit from the Gawler Bypass signifies 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.

Special thanks to Mark and Mick and the young lady that accompanied me on the last few kms. Was good to have a bit of company. You kept my spirits up as my legs started to give up on me between Roseworthy and the 'finish line'.

Also really enjoyed the chats over the cake and coffee afterwards. Some fascinating tales told. I am in awe at the feats you people achieve on your bikes. Hope everyone has a fun and safe day tomorrow on the ride up the freeway. Hope to do it all again soon.

Comment by Lyndelle Barry on March 16, 2012 at 10:26: Haha, you're awesome, Frank!
I actually am going to give it a miss, but only because I have very limited time to go shopping for a real road bike. Hope to see you all much quicker and able to tackle hills and long distances next week
