Tuesday10th May

Dozer picked up Bugs and we headed to Sumner to meet up at the bottom of Captain Thomas. The Cook arrived Just afterwards. We headed up the start of Evans pass then dropped down to the stile at the bottom of Captain Thomas. Bugs lead with Dozer behind and then The Cook. Bugs cleared all the hair pins on the way up, Dozer got most and the Cook I wasn't to sure about. Just before the last hairpin where the track levels out The Cook caught his peddle on the bank and fell to the right. Bugs and Dozer heard the #%@8 word and saw his bike, light and him rolling down the hill. He stopped about 10 meters down. All was well just a small bruise to the knee. We all continued on the up with The Cook not far behind. Arrived at the summit road and then headed up to the top of Greenwood. As we got higher The Cook got faster. By the top he was nearly pulling ahead of the other two. Waited at the start of Greenwood for 5 riders going the other way. Bugs lead with Dozer then The Cook behind. Nice ride down here with not stopping required at the ruins. Into the rest of Greenwood with a small gap between us all. All missed the 1st rocky up at the bottom but cleared the other. Down into Cpt Thomas in the same order. Bugs n Dozer cleared it all except for the rocky up towards the end. Short wait while The Cook cleared all the rocks then down into the fast finish. No issues of any down here just a lot of fun. Over the stile at the bottom then down the steeps into the paddocks, though the gate then back to the cars. Headed to the Twisted Hop and meet Rubberjaws and Mellonfarmer at the door for a pint.
