Lots of Bike Fridays (even a BF tandem), and a few other folding bikes of the smaller wheeled variety.<BR/><BR/>After riding this again (after some years away from it) I agree with the road closure point. But its difficult to get any sort of distance on cycle paths or quieter roads anywhere in Sydney, so I think this is a necessary evil for some time, until the cycle network becomes larger and of a better quality. All the bike path/bike lane network is currently is a vague nod to short-hop commuters and weekend wanderers.<BR/><BR/>Lots of action similar to the Spring Cycle on sunday. Mountain bikes galore, although many with smooth, skinnier tyres, and plenty of bikes that hadnt been looked at since last november. Fancy adding an extra hour to a Gong trip? Ride a mountain bike. Climbing out of the National Park I passed too many to count on my flat bar roadie!<BR/><BR/>Jim<BR/>The GWHThe Great White Hypehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08654735747549916597noreply@blogger.com
