Cycling in Melbourne Australia
Just saying 'hi'
I joined up here a while ago..then went away without saying hello..how rude!
Anyway, I'm Caroline, a recreational rider who has started cycling relatively recently after ..lets just say..quite a number of years out of the saddle.
I ride an Avanti Explorer 2 ...generally around the beach road/path area (live in Elsternwick) but am planning some trips further afield.
At the moment, I'm looking for fitness, fun and a bit of cycling company if there is anyone around :)

hey, I'm new to Australia, just spent the last three months in Egypt and my cycling fitness has plummeted, kept it up a wee bit by swimming loads. I'm keen to get back on the riding and got my bike shipped over from the UK. But would be keen to go for a ride with company?

Love some company ..I'll warn you though..I'm not quick yet, and am only doing 20 -30 kms ..but hopefully both will change soon !
I see you are in Mordy ...and an Brit expat too !

Yeah coolio sounds like a plan. I'm hovering around 25 to 30km/h at the moment depending on the conditions; which is a bit poop considering where I was at before I left the UK last summer. If your up for a ride give me a shout when and where to rondez-vous, I'm happy for any length of distance/time etc...
Yeah Lovely ol'Mordy :-D far from the city so it makes it a nice distance to ride to.

Hi Tom & Caroline, have you looked at The 9 OClockers Group on this site? Sounds like it's just what you're both looking for :)
