bit of a southerly blowing. punters met at Rubberjaw's to find him not riding (again!), this time cos of his wrist tweak (cause unknown) of sunday. Nelsy, Tinks, SlyFox, Wazza and me the Farmer of Mellons were the only starters. Fatboy out still due to Ribs of previous week. tootled round, into the hella head wind up Rapaki, helluva wind up on top, waited for Helmutless, Sandals, and Abba...
up round Vernon, blasting round Traverse to Vic, Thomsons, Kiwi, up road to top of Marleys. (Sanddals riding up Flying nun from road to meet us part way up). Bombed it down the 'Nun, and hauled ass down to Kiwi again... everybody seeming to have a pretty good run.
Up road to top of Vic, and down to brakefree, then down ?Sesame St? into new section with cool wooden wallride. then Silverfox, Sandals, Helmut and Abba bailed, and the rest of us went down Dazzas, into Brents, Flow, Bridges, then argie-bargied up the being-rebuilt-zigzags, up Hidden Valley, to the pylon, and caught the lower Old Skool singletrack for a blast down. all good.
streetlights were just on as i rode home across town, nice tail wind to push me, tho it'd died a bit (as per..).
