This morning a group of 11 enjoyed a circuit around ‘the inner Bellarine’.  Coffee was at The Cheeky Cow Cafe at Collendina.  With press complaints recently about CoGG not providing cycle parking near coffee shops, it was good to see the new racks installed at The Cheeky Cow. While we were there they were all full, and there were at least half a dozen bikes dotted around.

These Wednesday rides are not aligned to any club – anyone who can ride around 80km at an average of 20+kph is welcome.  If you’re on holidays, please consider joining us.  Just turn up with bike, helmet and coffee money at the start.

These friendly Wednesday rides started as an off shoot of On Ya Bike! Cycling Geelong’s annual series of rides for Seniors Month.

Next week’s ride starts at 8am at Rippleside Park  near the adventure playground.

Today’s circuit was 70km.  Those who cycled to the starting point added to this (John M probably had the longest ride of around 100km from North Geelong.  Helen’s was 88km.
