Tuesday 29th February

A night of 4 rides.  I went out on my own as Tuesdays are fecked for me as a team rider.  A solid ride up Huntsbury carrying sleeping bag, food items, clothing etc to imitate what I need on the trip, then up Longhurst and down to the end.  I then climbed back up Longhurst which is a steep mother and then right onto Takehe Drive and down Kidson.  Left onto Dyers Pass and up to a left into Westeria Tce, left down Hackthorne and right into MacMillan before heading down Dyers and back to the car.

Meanwhile some of the lads including Bugs, Dozer, Phatboy and Juniour (i think) went up Ct Thomas at separate times, left along the road and then 4wd drive track to Godley track and back towards and down Ct Thomas...while The Cook parked up at the top of Evans rode along the road up the 4wd left to Godley Head and then singletrack to the car...

Meanwhile Mellonfarmer and Macgyver rode Captain Thomas as well, but up a track above Greenwood, up the ridge to the top of Mt Pleasant, back down, and around the two new(ish) ones that start at the Greenwood entrance and end at the Ruins, then back down Greenwood where they caught up with Phatbuoy and JuniorPhatty.  They all rode down The Thomas together..
