saw a few fixed/ss contraptions on the way in along the scotchmans creek path.

Also saw three guys on the dynon road bridge in footscray (beards were involved and the last guy was in full aero tuck, practically on the top tube). They looked vaguely familiar and might have said “hi nik” or maybe it was just “hi mate”. sorry if it was anyone i actually know, i’d just ridden ~150ks 😛
