Ride Description
Tourist ride with significant hills, mostly on back roads, through to the Spit, Balgowlah, Arabanoo Lookout, Little Manly lookouts and North Head where we may venture to one of the ocean side lookouts. Coffee usually at North Head followed by an inland excursion to Manly Dam. Return via Manly Vale, Balgowlah, Spit and back streets of Cremorne and Cammeray. Stops primarily at scenic viewing points, minimal regrouping. The ride includes several short steep hills with gradients 6 to 8%. Rolling speed on the flat will typically be 20 to 23km/hr to achieve a steady pace due to the tortuous nature of the route.
