Faster paced rides aimed at self sufficient riders. Outbound via Balmoral and Lytton, through Wynnum and along bay front to Whites Road. The Cruise takes a shorter route across the boardwalk while the longer rides continue to Manly Rd turning left and heading to Beth Boyd Park via Mary Pleasant Dr. With the Cruise taking another direct route all riders share the short break together. Return route via New Cleveland, Manly and Wynnum Roads to breakfast at Café Di Moda, Stones Cnr.
