The pic is post ride for the record

What I really meant was ... it couldn't have been JUST after the ride .. you look far too good ...

Or the ride wasn't NEARLY as bad as you say it was ...

And thanks for the green ...

I had 4 kms of level ride to recover, and yepper that was directly after the ride, thankfully I am a bit fit (walking fit) not uphill hard out fit. There are thankfully no pics of me about to expire on the poxy hill

We have a few good cycle trails down here now. Come down and try them out. The Central Otago Rail Trail has easy gradients ... and only 150 km's start to finish. Two days with effort. Three with ease.

I decline the invite, with regret of course. There is not a snowballs chance in hell of me taking that up as a way to maintain fitness. I dont want callouses on my lower pelvic area, in fact, forget the callouses, I dont ever want to be bruised like that. I managed to catch my right buttock on the poxy seat of that evil machine, and coped a decent bruise as a result. Give me a 2 wheeled engine powered bike every time!

Then bring your engine powered one down then ... if you must ... bring Maha too ..

I'll take you on a ride past the rail trail ... so you can point and laugh at them ...

Which end you starting at ???

Probably the best time of year to do it. Not too hot ... OR cold. Two or three day (or more) ???

The begining end?

The begining end?

The end of the Rainbow is Alexandra. Sadly the rail trail neither starts or end here.

The start to the trail is always at the beginning ... The end arrives ... eventually.

But the beginning can be wherever you want to start. It's not one way ... Just seems uphill a lot though ..

Yep, don't quite understand roadies. I ride bikes, but only in the mountains. And it's usually with cool people, no lycra allowed

[unstuck]

If you do the whole trail, starting in alex or clyde, then the Taieri gorge railway trip from middlemarch is freakin awesome too.

[Stirts]

having a meaningful conversation ...

That's a serious farking drinking problem Anne

I do both, and I've met some very cool people on the road.

But anyway, "jelly pants"

I used to ride road race bikes years ago, just for fun. Just an excuse to shave my legs, and get away with it.
