HILLS RIDE – JUNE 19, 2022
The ride starts at the Pelican Plaza Shopping Centre on North East Road Ridgehaven.
Members will assemble from 0930hrs for a 1000hrs start.
The route will take us up North East Road to Range Road North where the roads will lead us through One Tree Hill, Humbug Scrub and onto Williamstown for a morning stop.
There are toilets and coffee shops are available at Williamstown.
The second part of the ride will take us to Springton and then through to Gumeracha, Lobethal and to the finish at the Cudlee Creek Hotel.
A hot coffee or something more substantial can be enjoyed at the hotel along with the welcome conversations that follow a winter’s ride in the Adelaide Hills.
Riders have a number of options to return to Adelaide from the
hotel after the ride and if the weather comes in during the ride,
there are two options to cut the ride short and return to the hotel.
Option one is to return to the Cudlee Creek Hotel from Williamstown after lunch.
Option two is to continue through Gumeracha to Cudlee Creek
rather than going through Lobethal.
The total rally distance is 110kms.
