fabs Posted January 22, 2014 Share How long does the avg joe take to get back? If you look at the results on Strava, this is not a ride for average Joe's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabs Posted January 22, 2014 Share here is an example Edited January 22, 2014 by fabs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryAustrian Posted January 22, 2014 Share Like fabs said, you have to be pretty strong to stick with the main bunch, Tuesday they where averaging close on 34km/h (at least for the 20min I managed to hang on). But having said that, I usually go at my own pace and there are plenty of other people doing it by themselves or in small groups, it's just a matter of learning the route which has quite a couple of turns in it. Best is to find someone to go with the first couple of times or see if you can to join someone along the way. And watch out for the Putco busses on Oxford as well as the lights coming down the hill on Sandton Drive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie NL Posted January 22, 2014 Share Can someone post a map of the route here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryAustrian Posted January 22, 2014 Share Here's one version, after wicklow there are a couple of different options and I think it varies sometimes? Start is on top, cnr William Nicol and Main Edited January 22, 2014 by someuser nonky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
