4Five+ are hosting a series of Friday hills rides during Spring. These will be a great opportunity to build some hills fitness in preparation for events like Tour of WA, Tour of Margaret River and the State Masters Road Race Championships.
The route has start point options, bail-out options and extras options! Hopefully something for everyone. The ride is designed to be inclusive, however riders need to be comfortable with the possibility of some stints of solo riding between regroups.
Those who want to go long, depart 7.00am from the car park corner of Midland Rd & Kalamunda Rd (near the He Brew coffee van - sorry no toilets), where we will head up the Zig Zag, and pick up the next bunch at Mason & Bird cafe in Kalamunda at 7.30am. From there we will head out to Pickering Brook, taking in a few ‘favourite climbs’ before returning to Kalamunda for coffee - estimated ride time 2.5 hours.

As always, all riders must have appropriate cycling public liability insurance (e.g. through AusCycling membership). Riders need to be self-sufficient for spares, food & water. Lights are recommended, as is having your ICE details visible on/with your phone. Group Ride Etiquette on the website https://www.4fiveplus.org/resources
Please rsvp to the FB event if you're coming (and where you will join the ride) so we know to look out for you. Any ride updates will be posted on the FB event.
