Supported Long Cycle Ride - Sunday 21 November 2010
Bonegilla - Mt Beauty - Bonegilla
Why not get that old bicycle out of the garage and come along on a supported ride to Mt Beauty and return. The total distance is 154Km (77km + 77 km). It is not intended to be a race but a long slow distance ride with regular food and drink stops. If you don't want to ride the full distance there are options to ride one way or part distances. The ride is, for the most part, along quiet and largely traffic free roads.
The ride plan is: Ride to Mt Beauty along the Gundowring Road with cold drinks and snack refreshments available every 15 km. Return will be via the same route to Bonegilla. Meeting time is 7.45am at the Fab4Fitness Home, Bonegilla. The estimated speed is around 25km/hr average and we are aiming to arrive in Mt Beauty before midday. The ride back will depart Mt Beauty for return no later than 2pm or earlier by mutual agreement.
The activity plan is: In Mt Beauty you can eat your own lunch or sample the delights of the Mt Beauty Bakery or other cafes. In Mt Beauty, there will be opportunities, if you feel active, for pool swimming, bushwalking or running. For these activities, you can put a bag in the car containing any items you wish.
Support car: There will be a car providing support, drinks and snacks. Please confirm with me if you are interested in riding only the first or the second half (around 77km) and need car transport for the other half.
Cost per person to cover the support will be: $5 for Fab4Fitness Squad members who hold a season card or $15 for non-card holders. Drinks and snacks enroute are included in the ride cost. Lunch and pool entry at Mt Beauty are at participant's expense.
Booking:
Bookings are essential as I need to confirm car transport. I need this data
to organise the support for the ride and the number of car seats required and
bike transport.
Please
confirm with me by Wednesday 17 November if you plan to attend this training.
