Holdfast Hill-Billies

Information

Holdfast Hill-Billies

A ride in the Adelaide hills starting & finishing in Glenelg (The Buffalo - Cnr of Anzac Highway & Adelphi Tce).  The idea is to build strength & endurance over time. These rides would be on a Saturday morning starting at 7:30 Sharp. Regrouping at designated points if required and regular rides would consist of the following:

http://ridewithgps.com/routes/864700 Glenelg-Bollards-Lofty-Marble hill–Glenelg

Other courses options to mix it up, the following:

http://ridewithgps.com/routes/864711

http://ridewithgps.com/routes/864682

If you have a course you want to put up for consideration pls submit it in the Discussion Forum, preferably using "ride with gps.com"

Moderate pace, Minimum distance approx 60kms and 3 hour duration. Ride route will be posted midweek on the discussion forum rather than creating an event page & any cancellations notified in advanced. Notice of your intentions if attending, can be posted there.

Expectations:

Riding on the flats approx 28kms/hr +

Norton summit climb approx 25mins  

Bollards Climb approx 35 mins

All riders are required to have a mechanically sound road bike, an approved helmet and must have appropriate insurance. This will not be an organised event, just a regular meeting point for those wishing to join me for a ride in the hills. All South Australian road laws are to be enforced.

Conditions are as follows:

Anyone participating in this ride does so at their own risk of injury, loss of life or damage to property. Therefore having the appropriate insurance is compulsory.

I could definitely  be up for some of these.  I'd be meeting at the south road/anzac hwy intersection when I can attend.  :)

Like Gill and Trent, I'm not a likely regular, but certainly will tag along for a few Lofty ascents here and there.

Looks like you're on a good thing here though Brett - all the best!

Comment by Trent on January 4, 2012 at 10:19

nice one! will certainly try and get out to a few of these when i need a break from the muddies!  =-)  hehe, i am sure that you will see a few muddies/SSRC join up to this group

Sounds very promising Brett. I may not actually get to a ride until much later this year but I wish you well.
