It aint that bad if you avoid Whites Road and go the 'back way'

(go along whatever that main road with bike lane is whilst heading west,
turn left onto RedHill turnoff, White Rd, and take immediate left again
rather than the long hard and dangerous, Wh Rd)

just gotta remember to eat before hand. was 'bonking real bad when i did
it last time about 6 weeks ago!

I live in Lower Templestowe so that suits me fine

Unfortunately I'm out of action for the next seeks weeks or so due to
riding accident so I'll hopefully join you guys for a ride if it become
a regular thing
