    Cheers guys but tbh my part of the ride (up Dyer's pass) was just awful... nearly lowsided when my backwheel hit a rock round a corner.
    Was chased by a suicidal Audi driver to whom the centreline meant nothing in her attempts to keep up with me...fuckin scary. Then she went onto summit road in sunstrike and I think it'll be a miracle if there's not a cyclist death in the news or something tomorrow.
    Then same thing with some bogan on the way down (Cashmere side, I was freaking out).
    Hope you guys enjoyed yourselves more than me.

    well made it to my first nanaride ever...and it was the last before daylight savings end to...
    Good to catch up with some "old faces", and great to meet some new ones.
    Was an enjoyable evening, I must be gettin realy old...., trying to keep up with "nana's" took a bit of doing.....
    Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....

    It was to short a skid for me to have done it.
    Feel the fear and do it anyway

    Don't confuse education with intelligence.
    There are alot of highly educated idiots out there.
