2003 Ride Report

Our Tizzana Luncheon Ride, held on Sunday 31 August, was yet again a success. This is probably our most well known ride, with about 60 riders joining us (a packed winery). The route winds along quiet and picturesque roads with many views over the Hawkesbury River Valley, a few challenging hills, a couple of ferry crossings and short stretches of good gravel road to arrive at Tizzana Winery for a catered and very social lunch. An easy 20 km ride back to Windsor completed the day.

This year we had three grades: 50, 70, and 90 kms, with the two longer rides presenting some challenging climbs, combined with rewarding country scenery and fast descents.
