Another route q..this time north of the river..

Ok, I can't find the route I want on Garmin connect & thought some local knowledge may help me out! I want to add 20km onto my ride.

Part of my ride takes me to the traffic lights (AT) the corner of the West Coast Highway & whatever street it is that your ride from Rebold Hill down. I know if i go left, i'll end up in cottesloe etc. Is it worth my time going right? Is there a hilly inland route I could do? I like discovering back roads!

Ta!

Your on Oceanic Drive when leaving Rebold.
Turn right onto West Coast Hwy,
Turn right onto Hale Rd - continue on Hale over the Weaponess st lights and up the hill - should be hilly enough
Then wherever you want to go.....

Then double back to Ewen street fron east to west and throught the back of Scabs there are plenty more rises

Thank you! I shall venture that way & see what goodies I find!

Oceanic Drive is a good ride.

If you are looking for extra km, try Google Earth and use the Ruler/Path function to look for routes the first time. I believe these are the same maps that Bikely uses to measure distance.

Back on topic, if you follow the PSP back up to Scarborough (about 4-5 km) you can go up Pearl Pde / Coral Tce / Sackville Tce which will bring you back to Huntriss. Good hills there.


Cheers,

Has anyone put these sorts of rides into something like map my ride
e.g.
Rebold Hill's Sceanic Drive, Hale Road, Underwood Avenue, Brighton Road, Ewen St, Sackville Tce, Slalom drive, Kalinda Dr, Mayfair St (Claremont) and Johnson Pde (Peppy).

once upon a time I said

Oh something like:

WCH at trigg, go south
Pearl pde, coral, Sackville, Nautilus Cr,
may, deanmore, back on sackville east this time
huntriss, king george,Muriel, ewen,
paramatta, coronation, athel
birchwood,oakwood,teakwood (flat at last)
Hale
dover,Buxton,empire,Durston,Boulevarde,kalinda
oceanic.scenic,oceanic
selby. underwood, stephenson
Rochdale. Alfred, WCH
narla, devon,shenton, saladin.
claremont cres. railway bdge,railway st
parry, grant. congdon
prospect, richardson ave.
the esplanade, lillia, johnston pde

You get the idea? Plenty of fun missed, like slalom, empire, the other climbs on hale or oceanic. And cornwall. But thats for the way back

Just go through Wembley Downs. I grew up in this suburb and the route to both my primary and secondary schools had some nice hills. I also had a paper round which I had to cycle the majority of the slopes each week.

No wonder I hate hills.

Another vote for Sackville if you plan on heading that far north.

You could try some of the Water Tower Challenge route which links up the towers on the hills around the suburbs.
