Sunday 29th May





A cool morning but a lot planned. Phatboy picked me up and we headed up to Evans Pass. Waited there for Bugs, Dozer and Texas who were dropped off at the top of Greenwood. They arrived mud splattered and telling us about the horrid conditions. We then headed around the Godley head track. Conditions were awful. A bit of slip but the sun was singing eyeballs and we could not see much. Lots of dabs. Then we stopped for some repairs to Bugs brakes. On we went. Riding better now as the sun kept climbing. Above Breeze Col we told the workers we would be back to join them soon. We continued to godley and then straight back to breeze Col. We were tasked at building a rock ride. We were succesful but absolutely stuffed. We were joined by The Lone Wolf and then Sandals. Fun in the sun, rolling boulders, cutting track and testing. Took longer than we planned but great to finish. Sandals, Phatboy and I headed back along the trail while the Lonewolf stayed on to do more track work and the other 3 dropped down the snake and from there they went to Dot Com where we all had coffee. Sandals, phatboy and I had a good blast back. I took some old tricky lines for fun and just had a blast on the downhill run. Stopped at the 2nd team of workers. They were tidying the lines on the first nasty climb. This will be interesting next time. I then rode down the hill, very quick, and hooked up with everyone at Cot Dom
