Dulwich Hill Bicycle Club

Is anyone going this week?

I have hopped on a fluid trainer with my bike at my Physio and I really didn't like the feel of it. Part of the fun of riding is balance for me. I guess the rollers would be the answer to this problem. Some good opinions on the subject here: http://www.bicycles.net.au/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=...

I would like to do the ride on Sunday depending on what my legs get up to on Saturday. The 100km Bundeena route sounds good. Hills, however, are my weakness. Would the suggestion be that I get some more training in or tackle the hill fear head on?

I'm out for this Saturday, but I might be keen for next week instead. I'll see you all on Sunday I hope!

What route do you take to get to Renegade from Enmore?

I wouldn't mind trying out one of their rides. They don't sound very fast but I'm guessing they generally do lots of hills. Might start out with C.

Don't know what I was so worried about, that was awesome

Thanks everyone for their help and encouragement!

Thanks Pretty much confirms my suspicions that I should just get over my fears and do it. I was amped up to do it last Sunday had it not rained.

How long ago was that first Waterfall ride Weiyun?

I am thinking of joining the Waterfall ride on Sunday and imagine I would be most suited to the slowest group. I realise the average speed is 27km/hr however since I have not done the road out to Waterfall nor have I done a ride this long before I am unsure how that translates to ability, especially...
