The Ride

This is a great longer flat ride… OK, so 1000+ elevation might not be so flat for some, but you take what you can get (100m per 10km isn’t too bad!). This is an out and back ride with a couple of small climbs at about 30km and 60km. Be careful on the Nowra streets and definitely take the bike path over the Norwa bridge.
