Yep I'm going first time as well. Can't Wait

I have a hybrid sorta bike but just wondering if I should get a road bike as I may do some more of these rides? If so anywhere I could get a cheap one? Also wondering if i should get a cheap jersey

cheers

Where and when is it? If you are looking for a cheap road bike, try Cell (google it) or Inexa? or Giant. Cheap jerseys at UNO Clothing.
 
21st of Feb. Starts and ends in Carlton.

I've got a Hybrid too jk20 but I've put some road bike rims and tyres on it. I'll give it a ride tomorrow providing it's not too stormy or wet in Melbourne and see how I go.

I'm a bit nervous about the West Gate Bridge. I just ride every week or two for around 25kms on pretty flat land so it'll be interesting. :D

I've rode over 25kms once - 45kms with a stop or two in between. I want to the the Summer Cycle in full without stopping!

Yep, jk20, go with road tyres I reckon. Makes it a lot easier. They should fit on the rims you have now, I'd imagine. I paid around $70 for a pair + tubes.
 
I did this ride with my 9 year old son who did it on his small frame Giant MTX moutain bike.

He had only ever done rides to and from school regularly and an occasional 5klm ride to the docklands from Footscray and blitzed it.

great ride for kids and people new to cycling
