Just 100 for me. First time on an organised ride so I'm looking forward to it. If I can average 40 I might even be home in time to watch the start of Bathurst .... HAHAHAHA

Have a good one guys and girls this is what you have been working for since feb. Stay safe as you already would know these are well supported so stop at the stops to rest and have a chat the vollies do great work.It is a long day but well worth it when you see the end.I did my first in 2010

I called to ask about the rest stops actually. I said that I'd been reading the FAQ and understood that there'd be stops half way around but that "half way is a long way". The Bike SA guy laughed and indicated that, by the sounds of it, they'd purposefully designed the routes among small towns with extra amenities.
