Tuesday 6th March

As written by Bugs
Meet Marie, her son, Robin, Tony and Mark at car park at bottom of Flying Nun. Mark wasn't riding as he just had a operation on his neck from a past bike mishap. Wayne & Andy arrived just as we were about head off. Most of us rode up to the top with the odd person getting a lift from Mark. Started off 1st loop which was a very fast lap for most of us except for Tony who got a flatly. Rode back up for the 2nd loop with heaps of other riders doing the same thing. Started the second loop hot on the heals of Andy till the 2nd cnr when there was a pinging from the back wheel of the giant. Broken Spoke. Limped down to the car and cut the loose bit off with the tin snips in the car. 3rd loop was a full one down to Evans. Great fast trip of everyone. Good to do the full thing with no stopping. 4th loop was another flying run till just after the rocky section 3/4 way down. Someone was doing work on part of the track and had put a wheel borrow in the middle of the track to force everyone to take the B way. Problem was if was on a fast blind cnr with a 90 degree bend. Most managed to make it except for Wayne who cocked it up and ended up with a grazed knee and sore elbow. FInished the ride with a few Bears in the car park that Andy had brought. Great night on a great track. Bugs
