Started out cool with a southerly wind, but the sky cleared to a beeaauutiful day. Warm sun but not too hot for riding. You'll love it! -- Cheers Peter ~~~ ~ _@ ~~ ~ _- \, ~~ (*)/ (*) |

Forecast says 9 - 20, which is warmer than I was expecting for the start. -- roshea |

"blah" wrote in message ups.com... Well, I'll be there. Anyone else? I should be out.....might even get keen enough to do Kinglake as I have an extended leave pass for the day......guess I will see how I feel by then. If I don't do Kinglake then I will at least ride the Blvd for only the second time on a BR. Gags |

I thought you were going there too FD? couldn't get leave pass for whole day and then when i started thinking about it, $ to ride a road i can any day for nix, and not even a particularly interesting one didn't appeal. mtb course perhaps in future, altho my shoulder might have somethig to say about that was intending to more to do the ride with werk colleagues, as the roady bug seems to have bitten deep amongst the goirls in the office. -- flyingdutch |

It looks like a bit of filing or summit, cleverly hidden in rear tyre Solo ride today. Nobody at the start so I left at about 7.35 and found dry roads from Old Warrandyte Rd (nice change from the very wet roads on the way to the start). Just took it very easy today on the way to a nice indoor coffee and muffin after definitely not doing Clinton's Rd. Decided to just reverse the route from the coffee stop to home. It it truly amazing just how false flat the road from Kangaroo Ground to the coffee shop is. On the way there I was convinced my brake was rubbing - way back I was flying along at 35-40 with no real effort. Way down the climb trial I encountered the only novel wildlife. I felt a twig or something go into a helmet vent. rummaged around and pulled out a wasp! Only freaked out a little as I threw it away. I think it had been stunned, luckily. Gee the big downhill is a big uphill in reverse. I'd rather Burgundy Street any day. Rolled home from there, getting more and more knackered as I went. 89kay on the clock, very low average, but glad I went out. Even more glad there's pasta cooking as I speak. Yum. |
