Cycling Plus edition 223

Survival of the fittest (Expert Ride)

This route is what I take after tuning-up the bike to assess my efforts. It's good fun because of the long straight down Lusher Road where you can try to pedal-out your top gear on a flat.

Quick jaunt to great local cafe - Kofi Beans, Croydon.

Mini-hill-climb and interval route.

A long route with some hills to increase endurance.

A fifty km practice ride without too many big climbs.

Start with steep climb up Eastfield Rd.

Then cruise past Ringwood and Eastland S/C.

Great view from the Maroondah Hwy. overpass.

Long cruise to Knox where you can get a snack.

Blind Creek trail is bumpy between Knox and the railway. Good long gentle downhill run to Bayswater.

My big ride.
