Cycling in Melbourne Australia

9ers

Information

We meet every Sunday at 08.45am for a ride starting at 9am at Cafe Racer. Riding along Beach Road, [about 25-35km/hr] to Mordy/Frankston. We also do other rides around Melbourne including Climbs (7 peaks), Organised rides (MAD, BAD, Otway, ATB, etc) and MTB . Riding and enjoying a laugh is the focus, so make sure you bring your sense of humour!! Oh, ensure your bike and kit are clean/well maintained - don't want any unnecessary accidents. *If you want to join 9ers, your request will be accepted, but you'll need to do at least 2 rides each month for your membership to be maintained :)

Orica-GreenEDGE's Simon Gerrans takes a ride up Lake Mountain with Australian Tour De France legend and mentor Phil Anderson.

Comment by Tim on July 8, 2012 at 8:46pm: Oh yes I bring a lot of experience in for my new role,watch this space, social cordinater

Comment by Heather on July 8, 2012 at 5:42pm: What a great ride today! Fantastic weather and having Patrick, Tracey, Glen & Marlon flying the flag with Tim and I was mad, good to see you all. Hey Tim I got your email but it's not on here yet so you may need to re-post it - the gist is that Tim is the official Group Social Organiser; watch this space for details, really looking forward to it!!! Also, I'm changing the Group's name to the 9ers - reasons are, but not limited to: typing 9 O'Clockers all the time is a pain in the ass, come the warmer weather it'll probably be better to start at 8am (remember the heat of last Summer?) and, occasionally our watches are on the wrong time zones LOL !!! I was also thinking of changing the name to the ‘9 ishers’, or the ‘nearly 9er’s’ but they’re just about as painful as the current name, ha ha! So everyone, welcome to The 9ers :)
