Written by Aldo, one of our four sponsored riders in the Commuter Challenge.
This Saturday I will be joining some 3,500 riders that will be taking part in the Great Ocean and Otway Classic Ride.
I will be embarking on the 204km route which involves 2,372 metres of climbing. I dropped into 99 Bikes Fitzroy North to get my bike serviced by Georg and picked up some bars and gels based on Madison's valuable advice on nutrition to get me through the ride.
This will be the toughest ride I have undertaken, so if you spot the 99 Bikes Commuter Challenge logo on my saddle bag say hello to show your support for the 99 Bikes Commuter Challenge.
