heather left a comment for Tarquin FintimLintin Bustop"I have not been on Woodside Road for a while. Do you mean that on curves there are now safety barriers? That a driver who is poor at cornering might squeeze a cyclist into the barrier?"

Tarquin FintimLintin Bustop replied to Jeremy Champion's discussion Nairne Cyclist RIP"Not good at all - and makes me mad as hell. I ride along this bit of road often and in other parts of the Hills. Its always a concern with cars/trucks/horse floats heading into the shoulder.
Does anyone know the name of the…"

Was very pleasant in the valleys with a cool breeze, and nice shade. As it warmed up went through a lot of water. Called it a day as the…"
Tarquin FintimLintin Bustop replied to Scarecrow's discussion WEEKDAY RIDES"There is a good group which usually starts from Balhannah oval at 9:30 on Tuesdays & Thursdays. On Tuesdays there's actually two groups, one slower (about mid 20k/h) the other slightly faster. Distance is usually 60-70km. …"

Tarquin FintimLintin Bustop replied to Trent's discussion Ride Nutrition"The only thing to add is to use food on the ride which you already use, and you know your stomach is comfortable with.

One could still take photos and GPS coordinates, and ask the responsible authority to be more aware of cyclist safety when doing future road upgrades. One could stress the worst locations where no advance visibility, and ask if there is anything that can be done: changes, warning signs, ? A cyclists was killed there recently, so best time to ask for improvements and decrease chances of another death. That is my interest. With your help, I am willing to contact the authority as coordinator of Adelaide BUG.
