did. What's the next goal? De Bortoli? It'll be a sweet race...

Cheers! Yeah, that will be the next major one.

I'll definitely get some photos from that, I'm doing the webpage &
event photography.

All those climbing camps at Hotham paid off, eh?

Thanks for the pics, Carl.
The A grade sprint was something else to watch - blink and you'd have
missed it. After taking a climb like that ... magnificent stuff. The
only part I regretted about the day was, err, trying to climb Baw Baw
on two wheels.

I rode it (not the race, just the climb, from just before Tanjil Bren)
a couple of years ago. Racing up it is just phenomenal. It took me 55
mins to do the last 6km.

We were a bit late - made the mistake of using a car instead of the
motorbike and only got shots of the 2nd half of the field. I'm glad
you like the photos!
Im touched Bleve that the only time you have done the climb was when i
was harping on about doing it and you took me out!!!

Two years later, im a lot wiser and arent so interested anymore....

Cheers! Hmmm, could be. I've only recently met him through a group of
roadies I ride with. He's on the left in this pic;

http://www.flickr.com/photos/jaywoo/469089601/Yep, that's him. I had the room next to him at college for 2 years. He's
not exactly new to this cycling stuff - he was pretty keen back then too
(mid-1980's)!

Sounds like you gave it a good crack, rockin'! Who & how many in the
break?

Ahhh few drapacs, few New south wales institue of sport guys, few
Praties guys (taswegian cycling team) and quite a few individuals,
orignially about 15 guys. Unfortunately the guys from NSWIS and
Praties wouldn't work as their team leaders were back in the bunch, we
could (coulda woulda shoulda..) have stayed away if they all put in.

What about those of us without fast or slow twitch. I recall that
climb being daunting enough in the car.
