Saturday Ride - 3rd October

For those of us not racing away this weekend, it was a damp start to the weekend and the Saturday morning ride. As expected, the numbers were down, but in the end the bunch rolled out with 10 riders.

I should mention that before the bunch actually managed to roll out, we had to wait for Bloomers to demonstrate his tyre changing abilities. FINALLY 10 minutes late, we rolled out. For Bloomers though, he didn't roll too far - to the Yarwun roundabout to be exact - before he got his second flat of the ride. I don't blame you for taking the car to maccas!

With only 6 riders turning right this morning, there were few wheels to hide behind. Luckily Greyhound and Bush Slasher were there to pull some strong, hard turns - until Andrew got a flattie at the base of Haddock, then it was all up to Johann.

Ride of the day has to go to Mecca who never missed a turn on the hitters ride - which did include turns next to Bush Slasher and the Banana Peeler Johann. Well done Mecca.
