905's Ride Report 25/7/10 PDF Print E-mail

The morning was a clear, crisp & sunny winters day and the 9:05s 
decided to head south and take advantage of a tail wind for the ride 
home.

We rode south to the Paekakariki Hill, up & over this lovely climb 
round Gray's Road, then round the Plimmerton waterfront & up Airlie 
Road. We rode our last hill up the Pukerua Bay bike track and then 
home along State Highway 1.

We finished with a relaxing coffee @ Lembas. Thanks to  all the other 
riders we had a great group (as we have for the last few weeks).

It was a really enjoyable ride &  it has been nice over the last few 
weeks to ride somewhere different & try some new hills.

Look forward to seeing lots more 9:05 riders joining us in the coming 
weeks.

Cheers

Lisa

Great report! keep them coming, although I'm sure that ride sounds vaguely familiar ;-)  
What is the plan for this coming weekend? I am hoping to join in. 
Cheers Matt

Thanks Matt - credit due to you as you were the instigator of this new route. The 905's would really appreciate route ideas from 905 riders - it is your group. 
So any ideas post them here or being them along in person on Sunday. 
 
See you on the road. 
 
Cheers Lisa

what about following behind the (900's) down the line to Jville Glenside only, and head back again over Airlie road? regards Martin

Sounds like a good idea to me. Let's see who is keen on Sunday.

Don't know exactly what is 'Jville Glenside' Martin, but I like the Airlie Road, so I'm in!  
The weather starts to look crappy though...  
 
I would also like to propose a long ride on the flat one of these weeks. Like up to Manakau or Foxton or something. What do you guys think?
