Footscray-Roubaix 2026…the boring sh*t….

We are completely non profit…we are actually really negative profit as the organisers

ALL moneys and donations go to ASRC

Route

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/54053370

https://strava.app.link/bjeSFhRQY0b

Public Liability? Yup…but please don’t hit dumped microwaves if you can avoid them.

It’ll be chaotic at start…probs get people moving before 11…..there’ll be quite a few marshals and route will be marked.

There’ll be a coffee van in the morning…that’s not free…

You can call 0439 557 730…if you get buggered and want a pick up…sweeper rider at back too.

Weather? Looks nice and warm…possible shower or two.

There’ll be a few freebies at the end…don’t get too excited….and some cool trophies made by Andy from Grindhog Day coffee…no idea what they’ll be for…so don’t try too hard.

….at the end..there’s only room for 120 inside Hop Nation….so with their usual customers…no room inside for everyone…If your put in $20 on Humantix…go inside and have a free pot…otherwise you can buy a can and take outside with the cool kids…and some tunes…curated by yours truly…if you don’t like my taste… tough…no Celine Dion requests.

Bike Lock? Good idea

There’ll be triathlon type back racks at the end…it’ll be messy..people and bikes everywhere

Please drop into Footscray Hotel …and Myrtle Café in the way…no set finish time

Might be a couple of T Shirts available on the day….
