Set off early to keep ahead of the lads on the uphill. I grunted up Rapaki (1st time on the full climb for quite some time) and it was a slow steady grunt. I then headed around the road to the start of the Traverse. Thought I saw the lads coming up the Rapaki but obviously mistaken. I sat looking over the city for about 15-20 minutes before they showed up. The posse was Tinkerbell, Bugs and Dozer. Phatboy showed a couple of minutes later as he was running late. They had a breather before heading around the Traverse. Nice run around here. Me off the pace on any climbs. Enjoyed all the downs and swoopy bits though. Regrouped at Vic Park before dropping down Thompsons. Nice. I decided to bypass the 2nd section which was a great idea as there were walkers creating a bottleneck and everyone and to stop. FDrom here we headed over to the start of Choirboy where there was a clusterfuck of riders waiting to head down for some reason. We took the lead (me tailender) and had a great run down here. Felt good. Into the park with us all taking Loees Rider. A few other users on the track but nice flow down here. Up the lift and down Yeah Yeah Nah, into Lord of the Posums. Nearly got shunted off the track by a tourist who went to let me pass then paniced and closed the gap. Regrouped before Phatboy headed dfown Double Overhead Cam while the rest of us dropped into lower Duncans Donuts to get into Snakeobs which throws you out onto Non Compliant. Stopped for a drink before doing the long drag home. Bit of a head wind for everyone.
