Saturday 28th September

The Cook & Sandals turned up at Bugs for a bit of a sneaky training ride. Dozer arrived with some new rubber on the front of his Remendy. Headed towards Ferrymead via the track on the other side of the Heathcote river for a change. Headed up Cannon Hill as we thought it would be harder. About half way up we were over taken by about 400 Tar Babies on there Roady's bikes. Cut into Mt Pleasant Road and up we went. Couple of small regroups as we made our way to the single track at Upper Hornbrook Rd. Arrived there just in time to meet the rain and wind, quick discussion and on we went. Bugs & Dozer arriving at the Summit Rd before the other two and headed straight down to the Greenwood as it would be more sheltered for a bit to eat. Sandals & Dozer arrived in no time so down Greenwood we headed. Bugs first followed by Dozer, The Cook and Sandals. Fast run down here by some and interesting ride by others. The Cook clearing the two rocky bits at the bottom for the 1st time. Straight into Captain Thomas with us all having our good bits and not so good. Coffee and undergrounds for a change then into the head wind back to Bug's place. Good, Honest 25km ride
