Bright Trip

Thursday Ride – 7th December 2018

10 riders left the caravan park at 3.30pm to ride to the end of  Buckland Valley and back from Bright. The ride distance was 40km return ride. Temperature at the start of the ride was in the low 30’s with a light breeze in both direction and so the ride conditions were good.

After riding to the end of the road where the road changes to gravel we had a rest in the shade before riding back to Bright.

A good warm up for the following day.

Sunday Ride – Woodend – 2nd December 2018

24 riders assembled in Woodend this morning for today’s ride. Weather conditions were sunny with a cold South Westerly wind blowing. While we had a head wind for a lot of the ride we finished along Ashbourne Road with a tail wind back to Woodend.

5 riders rode the longer ride, 9 rode a shortened version of the longer ride, 7 rode the medium ride. 3 rode the shorter ride. We also had 1 first time rider with us this morning.

One unnamed member was very particular about putting his cycling cap on when leaving home to ride to Woodend. On arrival at Woodend members noted no helmet was being worn (Whoops).

All riders were together at the cafe and the usual refreshments and chatter were enjoyed before we all headed home.
