The day after the big wet and a great game of rugby saw me go outside ready to ride up the hills. met up with Tinkerbell and Dozer who had looked at the weather and thought it would be a flat town ride. He had his skinny tyre bike with slicks. Light mist drizzle but the hills were clogged in at the tops so we agreed with him. Contacted Phatboy and arranged a meeting point to allow him time to get there. The 3 of us headed through smelly slippery mud from the flood across the footbridge and followed Hansens Park. More drizzle further along so our call was worth it. We followed the river from the end of Hansens continuing along until we met Phatboy near Ensors Rd. We decided to follow the river and see the sites of the flood. After crossing Tenyson St and riding quite some distance in the water we got pulled over by council response team suggesting we do not ride the water as it was full of shit and a health risk. We heeded the advise and ziged our way back to Colombo St and headed up Strickland St and onto Antigua to the boat sheds. Down Worscester Boulevard and into the Square. Chatted before heading for a cuppa in New Regent St. From here we headed past Margeret Mahey Playground, down Kilmore, Avonside and onto Linwood where Phatboy headed home. The rest of us went up Britain, England, Oliviers etc and back to mine. Just over an hours ride but not a lot of options.
