Tuesday 17th April

Bit cold so the riders were dropping like fly's. We were keen for a decent ride. Dozer turned up at Bugs place around six and we rode round past Rubberjaws to find no one there so we pushed on to Silver foxes. The 3 Musketeers then road round to the Halswall quarry. Headed up the track with Dozer leading us a stray. Looks different in the dark. Good ride up the single track with the 3 musketeers clearing all the track and racing for turns at the lead. Up to the pine trees with the gate where we normally turn around and decided to climb some more. Past the cows and before we knew it we were at the top. Round to the Nun with a quick run down here except for Tony getting his normal puncher. Joined the queue at the top of Vic park and headed around the Traverse. Up onto Mt Vernon with the fox leading. Down Rapaki with Bugs lights attracting all the bugs. SIlver fox headed home from here with Bugs and Dozer riding the last bit of road home. Long but great ride. Home nice n early at 10.15pm.
