Kinglake ride (meet at Bundoora Hotel, Plenty Road, Bundoora)
Usually a casual ride out to Whittelsea, where half the bunch usually turns
around for a 50km ride. The remainder continue on to Humevale, take the old
road up to the top of Kinglake West. Some riders take off up the climb, but
everyone regroups at the summit. Some riders continue on over the top through
Kinglake and back through Hurstbridge, Greensborough, whilst the majority take
the highway back down to Whittelsea then on to Bundoora, for about an 80km ride.
Descending the mountain the pace is usually on, occasionally continuing to
Whittelsea but usually stopping at the bottom of the mountain, although in
recent weeks, some riders have been keen to keep the pace high.
