Ken's Magical Mystery tour is scheduled again for this weekend. We will start from the Maylands Railway Station at 8:00 with a hook up at the Narrows (South) at 8:30. This will be a slow, leisurely ride following the river. Even if you've done this ride before the exact route is a mystery. Will we have a coffee stop or two or three? Will Ken remember the route?...a mystery!

Cyclo Sportif - Swan Valley - Sunday, 30 June 2013
I know it is short notice (registration closes on Tuesday) but is there any interest in doing next Sunday's Cyclo Sportif?
I will be doing the Cyclo Sportif myself along with work colleagues (Team name: CFC Group - Wolf Pack A).
A team needs to comprise a minimum of 4 riders. See: Cyclo Sportif - Swan Valley - June 30
While I've never ridden in the Cyclo Sportif previously I have been to the WA Track Cycling Grand Prix a number of times and it is a great event.
The Cyclo Sportif finishes with lunch at the Velodrome and viewing of the Grand Prix.
If there is interest let me know and I'll register a "Ride_Group" team. Of course, those who would prefer can do it as an individual.

Start Place: Maylands Railway Station, Narrows (Sth Side)

It is some time since we've done the Roe Highway (bike path) jaunt.
Start Time: 8:00 am, 8:30 am
It is some time since we've done the Roe Highway (bike path) jaunt.
Normally we would ride along the bike path to Orrong Road and then all the way back for a long and at times fast ride. This time Jenny has researched a different route so that we don't return all the way along the Roe Highway bike path.
From Orrong Road return on Roe Hwy path to Railway Pde exit. Follow railway to Oats St, then Oats/Gabriel to Abernethy, Fairbrother, Belgravia, Grandstand. Cross the river and follow the river via Maylands to East Perth, Causeway and Narrows.
We can stop at Tomato Lake in Oats St (have to check the menu first) or next to Tranby House or at East Perth in the inlet just south of the Windan Bridge.

Saturday June 8, 2013 - Two Valleys ride
Ride Organiser: Francis Vivier
Organiser's email: francis.vivier@iinet.net.au
Organiser's mobile telephone no: 0403 236 439
Ride style: Social
Terrain: Includes Hill Sections
Estimated Distance: 60 kms+
Start Point: Maylands
Start Time: 8:30 am
I propose to travel on the cycle path from Maylands to Bassendean, then through Guildford by the river. However this time we will come on the other side of the Guildford bridge to ride in some back streets of Guildford towards Hazelmere. Travel along Bushmead road, then Midland Rd to find Ridge Hill road. Yes there is a good hill there – apparently less painful than coming from the Helena Valley, and yes it will be hard for me.
Then Scott Street, Clayton Rd, to go under Gt Eastern Hwy to make our way though Swan View, to cycle a bit in the Swan Valley, via Toodyay Rd, Campersic Rd, then Lennard Street and Gt Northern Hwy for our coffee stop at the Coffee Hut.
Return trip via Barrett Street, to West Swan Rd, Benara Rd, Lord Street and finally join the cycle path in Bassendean to finish in Maylands.
