3 Day sufferfest - interested???
Posted: 01 Jun 2008, 20:27
Well, i'm planning/hoping to get my Grafton training happening early this year, so i can have a good improvement on last years performance. So, the plan is 3 big days of riding, can't stay home or i'll probably get lazy.
Current plans are to do a big loop down to Canberra/Queanbeyan, 680km (approx) total. I haven't finalised where the stops will be, but it will be something similar to the following, unless someone gives me a better idea:
Day 1- Sydney to Ulladulla - 224km

Day 2- Ulladulla to Canberra/Queanbeyan - 184km

Day 3- Canberra to Sydney - 276km

Terrain shouldn't be too difficult, but you can check the profile through the links. Day 2 has a reasonable climb.
Dates i'm considering are either 7-9th or 14-16th July, mainly because i work weekends and thurs/fri unless i'm going to an Open.
Let me know if you'd like to join me, or have any suggestions on the route, even if you won't be coming, as alternate roads can be useful.
