Had a blast. Really fun event. Thanks to all that organized, rode and were nice along the way. No thanks to certain dicks for knocking a friend off of his bike and not stopping to see if he was OK. Wankers.
During the 1st couple of check points on the southern end of the course a guy undercut a friend who was riding, and from what I saw clipped him, said friend went down rather hard and it was very audible, ie. The clipper would have heard him bin it. He just kept riding. Wanker. Friend was ok, a bit shaken up and a cut on his hand. I found it disapointing that this happened, it was meant to be a fun ride.
That’s fucked. IMO there is no excuse for not stopping to at least check that someone’s ok, whether you’re directly involved in a crash or not.
Glad he wasn’t too banged up.
Almost lost my ability to sire children near Crown/MEC when I was back pedalling to slow down through traffic and a chainring bolt popped… chain fell fell off and I almost made good friends with the top tube…
Has left the frame with some nice marks across the chain stay
Why would you want to sire any of those filthy, noisy things Snuffy? Just take CraigC as your example…
And speaking of CraigC, it’s good to see that he got a mention in the Fixomatosus (sic) write-up for his superlative lying abilities. Kudos Craig, you are an example to us all.
Someone has to keep the human race going…

As far as the ride goes it was heaps of fun, a great way to get back on after nearly a months hiatus.
My thanks go to Andy and crew for the organization, Cres for her map reading skills, Nath and Damoh for chasing and all the other bitches for makin it such a bonza day!
Thanks also go to Melbourne weather too for cleaning the rig so damn well, won’t have to do it for another year now
Your Furnari would have to be winner of “best bike of the day” for me… Arriving covered in a beautiful layer of winter grime, layed down on the ground… it just screamed out : “let’s ride damnit!!”
