My Comeback at 70 - Gran Fondo Part 5

The 10 Peaks Ride

As part of my training for Amy’s Gran Fondo, 122km with 1,900m of elevation, I rode out to tackle a local favourite: a short, punchy road I’ve come to call The Ten Peaks.
It’s a series of back-to-back climbs just outside Melbourne on Yarra Boulevard, and while they’re not long, they’re relentless, the perfect session for testing legs, lungs, and mindset. I used to drive here… now I ride from my front door.

This ride is another step in my cycling comeback at 70. If you're an older rider returning to the bike, or just chasing a new goal, I hope this ride resonates with you.

A viewer, John, recently suggested I invite subscribers to join me on events like Amy’s Gran Fondo, and I think it’s a great idea. While this year my focus is on finishing the ride, I’m happy invite anyone who's interested to meet up beforehand and/or join me on the ride, Sunday 19th October in Lorne.
