Thanks for the caffiene Birdy....
It's amazing what you can fix with bits of ladder. Something to add that to my 'must carry' list.
Item 2001/ 1 medium sized aluminium ladder

Was a nice wee blat. Although, how many times to I have to say...DONT BLOODY FOLLOW RATTI. I do NOT know where the heck I am going. Groovy wee widget that you have there tho Richard, saved the day!

Cheers for coffee and well done on Neshi's bike repair.
Great to keep meeting people on these rides. Ratty, that gadget has saved me many a time.

Thanks to those who waited at Pauatahanui, you prob could have had a coffee while you wiated for me.

**rjg** · 19th June 2010, 17:57

No don't be silly, we weren't there long, you did really well. Sorry though, it seems that road just got the better of me today and I had to answer to its calls. But I knew you wouldn't be far behind, so well done!

Ahhhhhhh that's better. My goodness, that felt bloody FANTASTIC on the hill today, absolutely LOVED every minute of being on the bike. Still smiling. So nice to get some dry ground below the wheels to "find my feet".

Bald Eagle....
....Fixing to-fiddys with Aluminium ladders and duct tape since ages ago.

What a pro.

And Katie, I see you have taken the "Ooooooohhhhh" out of your Boul"Oooooooohhhhh"vard

Cheers all for the ride, I better spend some time with the boy now.
Cant miss all of his birthday...

You were absolutely flying on the hill Katie. I swear you got about 3 feet of air at one point. It was a pleasure!

yea... seems there is always something the matter with me, or with the bike.
I will take her to the doctor asap and get her fixed up. Just hope there is no other 'unseen' damage done... Sprocket and maybe a chain is expensive enough.

Will have to take better care of her, that's what I learned today.
