Tuesday Morning Rides in Perth

[alex]

Does the TBE 6am Tuesday ride from the narrows (north side) still run?

If so, where is a decent spot there to wait?

no idea, but what is the pace/distance you're expecting. That's close
to work and would be *very* convenient for me also...

Any others that people know of that are not too fast (ie 28-30 is OK)
or too far (50-60km is OK) and are near the CBD, it would be great to
hear about them.

Cheers

Rode a fair bit of it this morning

A few handy hints:

1. If its your first ride stick with the slow bunch
2. If you are stupid enough to ride with the quick bunch don't do it
with your clothes, shoes and papers in your backpack :)

Joined the fast pack on stirling hwy near dingo flour mills and then
dropped very soon after that around East Freo, continued to Curtin Uni
after that.

I'll be riding with the older posse for a while methinks ! :)

Was definitely worth it

Runs thursday as well. If you want to jump on down freo way, jump on at
the top of the Preston Point Rd hill, not too painful from then on.

It usually averages about 34-35 but if you sit in and its not too windy
you should be right.

I was totally dropped at that point and since I've never done that ride
before I had no idea which direction the pack went.. so I rode on to
uni @ curtin instead

that'll teach me :)

it goes down through Point Walter, around Applecross and then down to
Mt Henry. Almost straight to Curtin.

Haven't done either of theother two rides.
