WOORIM BEACH RIDE - 21st JUNE 2014


Saturday 21st June was a perfect day for a beach ride around to Woorim with a very low tide at 10.30 a.m, a beautiful morning with no wind.

A few hardy souls managed to negotiate onto the beach at South Esplanade while the remainder joined the group at Red Beach.

The 14 riders enjoyed a great ride to Woorim with the sand reasonably hard all the way. The Sandgate Canoe Club had also decided to do a paddle from Bongaree to Dingo Creek (half way up Woorim Beach) so we are told. We were amazed at the speed they were travelling which was about equal to our speed on the bikes!

After an hour's rest (and coffee, of course) at Woorim, six riders rode the return trip back to Bongaree Jetty.  Joyce even kept riding past the jetty along the beach on the passage side.

It was an enjoyable ride with many looking forward to the next beach ride.
