#132.0 My favourite ride since starting cycling – Gold Coast Hinterland Loop

Since commencing road cycling in March 2021, I only ever rode local.

Luckily, I got to know some Gold Coast cyclists that exposed me to the unbelievable loops we have in the hinterland.

Which brings me to the Springbrook, Natural Bridge and Tomewin 3 peak hinterland loop.

I did this particular ride back in February 2022 and since training for an Ironman (specific sessions) I haven’t had a chance to do the loop in a while.

However, would love to have a crack at doing it faster and faster.

Always addicting seeing improvement over time after adopting a new skill.
