Melb to Canberra ride

Quoted message said:

Distance is 650km.

If 3 days, stops would be at Wangaratta, and Tarcutta pubs. If 2 days,
stop at an Albury pub (very modest tarrifs!).

2 days is optimistic for me, especially given 3 or 4 serious hills in
NSW. But, I will probably set off with a 2 day goal, and see how it
goes. Strong cross winds in NSW could also be a factor.

Intend to bus back to Melb, although, if I am still alive, I would
contemplate a return ride!

Anyone interested in joining me?

Sounds terrible if you intend going along the Hume, I would suggest a
route through the mountains. Some of us here in Canberra have ridden
Canberra > Bright for the Audax Alpine

I am planning a 2 or 3 day unsupported ride from Melb to Canberra in a
few weeks time.

There's more than 3 or 4 serious hills in NSW Rod. Your not plannin
on ridng just along the Highway / freeway are you? There's lots o
nicer routes than that if you wanted to spend an extra day or so
