Others in attendance, I tried to do the block but hit a dead end, by the time I got back the sprint ambulance had arrived. Lying still and bloodied.See More
Roly replied to Ruddager's discussion Take THAT Sheoak road!"Nicely done.
The Lynton Bike track followed by Sheoak is a great strength test. Sheoak is a pig to restart on in cleats, and crap when a car comes up behind you and you want to 'tack' across the road. Also check out Morgans rd if you are…"

heather said… Hi Roland,
I live close to the city and am yet to cycle the old or new Belair Roads, especially when traffic during peak hour. So it would be a big deal for me too. Sometimes posts on AC hub seeking good routes between A and B. Not sure that there are options coming down onto the plains, unless you backtrack to Shepherd Hill Road. If you start a discussion will get ideas on how to avoid Unley and Goodwood Roads.
Cheers, Heather
