Sunday 27th April

A few of the lads were away due to Anzac weekend, and Tinkerbell (aka Andrew) was sick so Two Pot, Hubby, Wayne, The Silverfox (also known as Sperm Boy or Tony) and Rubberjaws met up at Dot Com. We rode up Richmond Hill Road and took the shingle Rd up a bit more then headed cross country along a sheep trail until we hit a bit of track we knew. Took us to the Summit Rd at the Pines above Jollies Bush and then onto the start of Greenwood Park. Bombed the first peice and stopped to freshen up at the ruins. Bombed down until Hubby punctured at the slippery slats in the shade. Rubberjaws and Hubby led from here. Good pace with nothing slowing us down. Got to the summit road and waited...waied some more then saw the Silverfox scooting his bike down. He has a Jamis with the most f....ked up drop out ever. He just got it back from being fixed and it broke. We waited for twopot and Wayne who had some chain problems. Rubberjaws took the road with Silverfox down to Dotcom. Towed him along the flat to save time. The others came down Ct Thomas but Hub punctured again.

Been organising the annual trip away. Heading down to Wanak, Alex and Naseby in October. !3 of us. Should be a great trip. great riding and some relaxing with beer and Bourbon in the evening. Will keep updating the progress. Everyone putting up their accomadation $$ early to keep their spots.

PS, watch the slippery slats on the Greenwood Track, lots of guys crashing off at this point.
