BRONZ Slow Paced Social Rides 2012

**k1w33d** · 7th April 2013, 21:21

Got money for fuel so I will be doing a ride on Tuesday if anyone is interested. Will be a short run from Avalon duckpond, up and across the Western Hills and then through Maungaraki finishing at McDonalds in Petone. Will do a reccy run tomorrow (Monday) after work to see what the road/environment conditions are like. Likely to be meeting up at 6pm then aiming to get underway at 6:15pm. It will be a slow ride. The route has some narrow twisty corners so care will need to be taken. Link to route in Google Maps

Had a run through the route after work today to check the road conditions. They were excellent. Just about to do it again to see what the light is like at this time. Don't see it being too much of a problem. Well be sticking to the speed limits this time round

Ended up two of us on the ride tonight so we ended up going up Paekok hill to grab the tag-o-rama tag. Dark and windy by the time we got there.

Carried on down to the bottom then headed back into town along the motorway fighting strong headwinds all the way.
