Monday AM - Couple of options being considered - either a shorter hill
climb ride to the Pinnacle and Mt Canobolas (about 40km) or a longer trip out to
Cudal and back via hills. This is a longer ride - closer to 90km with a hard
climb from Cudal back into Orange. The ride to Cudal is mostly downhill then a
solid ride back. The shorter option may be better for giving time to drive back
to Sydney. Another option for Monday is a hill climb time trial up the Pinnacle
- this is short and steep however could be interesting. This would be subject to
getting approval from CA and police (the other race is approved).
There is excellent riding around Orange with quite roads and good surface (only
the few rabbits and kangaroos to dodge!). The cooler weather this time of year
makes for great riding. There is also a good variety with flatter bits and some
steep hills.
