On Friday mornings at 5:30am there will be an open session (men and women) that will focus on both the climbs and chase in between. Meeting under the narrows city-side, but under the northern side of the road (opposite where we usually do), we will head into the city in a controlled manner along the course from Birdya Drive. This is to give people a view of the actual course which is important so that they can understand the gradient and conditions of the road. Unfortunately there are seven sets of traffic lights that makes this very difficult from a training perspective, so we will ride it in a neutral manner.Once the groups crosses Milligan Street it is game on following the course up Malcolm and into the park, however, the group will regroup just after turning into Kings Park Ave. This is to ensure that we can have a safe and protected group riding along Mounts Bay Road as the early morning traffic starts to pick up around 6am. (see map for lap 1)
The ride is neutralised as we head back into the city but instead of following the actual course back through the actual CBD, we stay on Mounts Bay Road, past the hospital and up Spring St to join back onto St Georges/Malcolm St. This gives the course a better flow for training and tackles a slightly harder climb with less recovery before Malcolm St. (see map for lap 2 & 3)
Again it is game on to follow the course with another regroup before leaving the park. Repeat for lap 3. If you are having trouble keeping up and don’t want to feel like you are having people wait for you, there is a shortcut before Lovekin Drive.
Depending on who we have in attendance, there may be an opportunity to split into 2 different groups, but we will play it by ear.
Similar to the Tuesday session, this is open to all riders including non-club members.
