Hi Mark. Thanks for the request/invite. What's up? I am negotiating with Terry at the moment about what we are doing this weekend. Looks like I might follow Terry's lead from the weekend just gone - GW on Saturday and Gully Grinders on Sunday. Great hilly route through beautiful country for the GG route on Sunday.
I did want to do the harer route with GW. But after seeing the offering from GG for Sunday Terry has convinved me, I think, to play safe on Saturday and save a few muscles for Sunday.
Which one are you doing?

Hi Mark, Welcome to Adelaide BUG.
Noticed that you posted about hazard of motorbikes illegally in the bicycle lane on Frome Road. The biker obviously knew that he was breaching ARR, trying to get into the travel lane before the police ahead noticed. Unfortunately this is a police matter, or I would suggest to ACC that they rotated cameras around such trouble spots, and recouped the cost from fines. I also see cars illegally stopped in this bicycle lane to pick up passengers.
If you see other hazards like potholes or road design, post on Adelaide BUG for discussion and I may contact ACC.
Cheers, Heather, coordinator of Adelaide BUG
