Sundays 19th june

Bug's drove to The Fox's place and passed Phatboy who was riding over there. Dozer had already arrived so there was 4 of us. Headed around the road to the Halswall Quarry. Nice warm up which got the heart pumping before the hill for a change. Headed up the normal C2 with Dozer leading followed by Phatboy then Bugs and The Fox. Continued up with Phatboy leading now. Up n Up we headed with some clearing all the ups and some not quite. Headed up and up with some running's passing us where the cows were and causing a mini stampede. Just past the gate Phatboy managed to get his favorite shorts hooked on his seat which caused a rip. This got bigger and bigger as the day went on until at the end his undies were there for all to see. Finally we arrived at the summit road. Headed around the road to the top of the Nun. Bug's got the Gopro filming for the down. Great ride down here with us all enjoying it. Headed up to Vic park for the down with Phatboy leading then Dozer, Bug's (Filming) and then the Fox. Though the rock garden and down the normal way with some changes to the lead at times. Up into the Hidden Valley with us all having some issues around the creek at the bottom. Another fantastic run down here with Dozer getting a flat half way down. Out the bottom then down the road. Phatboy headed home from here while the others headed to Foxes where Mrs Fox made a nice coffee and home made cookies. Great ride with no rain.   

Meanwhile Rubberjaws got up and did a solo ride on the fl;at again. He is not happy to always being on the flat.  Anyhow he headed up Opawa onto Shakespear Rd to the end and up Burke St before hanging a right on Selwyn Left into Poulson and then right towards Hagley Park.  Started heading south around South Hagley crossed over by the hospital and south around North Hagley until I got back to the hospital again.  Crossed over and finished the rest of South Hagley before retracing my outward journey home.  Drs tomorrow and hospital Tuesday maybe I can get a date to start riding the hills again.
