    With only 2 days until the new year, and just over 2 months until the season starts it's time for a new thread. Who's your money on? Will Bagnia do the triple? Will Marc return to former glory and bring us a season in which he dominates? Will Martin secure his dream to win a championship?...

      Can a mod please put this on the home page?

      Why via Hobson and Pitt, wouldn't up Queen St be better?

      Anybody got room on the back for a young lass? Her mum passed from breast cancer a couple years ago and is pretty keen on attending. She'd need picking up/dropping off from the city, or could potentially travel some ways to you. PM me if you're keen to help out.

      Does she have her own gear? If no-one else puts up their hand (she'd need to have her gear), I can help, but I'm also on escort duties for the ride, hence preferring for someone else to assist.

      I've got some gear I can chuck her in.

      Is this still on given the weather? and are you aware that usually this carpark is reasonably busy on a Sunday morning as markets are held here every Sunday? (hopefully the markets will be fairly quiet tomorrow given the poor weather).

      Market is in the main car park. We meet in the side one, which has access to and from College Rd.

      First cycle ride with a group, thanks guys. (:

      Thanks in particular to Kevin from MRS and RRRS for helping with this newbie with mechanical tweaking and guidance. You guys rock, and will see you at the course soon.

      I've uploaded few photos uploaded to a open gallery.
