Leaving Watsonia we roll along to Diamond creek than take the beautiful Broad Gully Rd along to Hurstbridge for a quick coffee. From here we climb up to Panton Hill then back down into St Andrews to attack the Buttermans track which brings us into Yarra Glen. Turning off to the north we ride up to Kinglake via Mt Slide Rd, this section includes roughly 7km of gravel, all uphill and safe to ride on road bike tyres. Lunch then awaits us before the descent down to Mittons Bridge rd turnoff for some climbing along the back roads of Authurs Creek & Nutfield. Returning to Hurstbridge, we climb the badly named Flat Rock Road to take us into Kangaroo Ground before a fun gentle downhill roll into Eltham to finish up the day. Suitable for competent road riders with good climbing legs.

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
