Ride/Event Description
I was thinking about celebrating the centenary of Canberra by enjoying the public holiday and going for a spin of everyone's favourite Spowen!
Ideas:
14km loop of Sparrow Hill then over to Kowen for a longer spin as well?
36km loop of Sparrow Hill taking in the new tracks and then some Kowen as well?
Maybe the Mont Loop of Kowen?

I don't know if you noticed, but there seemed to be a lot of people in your exact situation :P
Time to go tubeless?

We were easy to spot Pad - I was the bloke with the upside down bike, swearing at the rear tyre!...Twice!

Didn't see you guys out there... we think we did the Mont lap, but got a bit lost in the process.

'Twas a good morn' indeed. Despite the flats.
Thank *&^% there was a roll-over on the other side of that first north shore jump in Aunty Flow, could have totally "yard saled"!
Dobbsy, thine training is paying off champ! Nice work!

Alrighty, so we've got a few people meeting at the Sparrow Hill Carpark for a 07:30ish step off for a recce of the Mont loop.
I intend to stick around and hit up the new tracks at the back of Sparrow before I head home... They are totally worth the effort!

I think it's gonna be the plan Adam. A recce of the course if Kowen isn't packed. I'm going to do the newer bits of Sparrow before I head home though
