  • 20km: an easy social ride
  • 25km: a little further at an easy pace
  • 30km: a little faster between 20-25km/hr
  • 33km: average 23-25km/hr
  • 34km: a nice pace of around a 25-27km/hr average
  • 35km: quicker sections and maybe a few more hills
  • 40km: fastest group with more hills. This group starts at the same place as the 34+35 group rides however if the start is south of Kawana they start at Forest Glen IGA carpark (see calendar for details).
