**********************************************
By the light of the silvery moon... lets ride this Sunday night

Time to put your phobias about warewoves and zombie aside, This Sunday
evening sees a full moon rise at about 6pm.

What better time could there be to go for a leisurely ride along the
Queenscliff Rail Trail with other like minded cycling folk.

Leaving outside the Geelong Showgrounds at the commencement of the rail
trail, (1km east of the South Geelong Rail Station)
At 8pm this Sunday evening.

Will we ride to Queenscliff & back? Or just to Drysdale and back? Or
maybe just Leopold? Depends on what people who turn up want to do as
to how far we go.

Bring high carbo food, water, Bike (unless your really good at
marathon running), lights, helmet, puncture gear if you can.

Don't forget it will be cold especially once stopped riding for breaks,
so layered clothing is the answer (one or two T shirts, skivvys,
windcheaters, spray jackets, vests, gloves, extra pair of socks (even a
plastic bag over each foot then shoes keeps then snug - but oh so
smelly!!). Arm warmers, leg warmers, scarf, neck warmer, head warmer
(does it ever stop?).

There will be sufficiently trained people to cope with any breakdowns,
mechanical, physical or mental!!

Hope to see you there

What sort of surface is the rail trail? Will 23mm tyres@110psi sink
into it or roll ok? Other than that, sounds good if I haven't already
booked myself
