sadly, couldnt attend this year. got laid off from my job on friday and couldnt afford to go. went down and yakked with friends though, and watched them all leave. one point... car control needed to be better at the tail end. quite a few cars got in and stuffed up the riders, separating the group quite badly.

hope the day went well, and you raised heaps!

We 109 bikes registered but i think we can do better if we fine tune the advertising.Thanks for the feed back.

saw that in todays rag. well done on that! hopefully ill be able to attend next year. everything just hit the fan all at once this time. i took a video of the ride out which ill try and get onto youtube at some stage. very impressive as always... nice to actually watch it rather than be in it for a change.
