Anybody else pull up a bit stiff this morning?

I must be getting old.

Nice to meet you Wayne & Bruce (Bruce & Wayne could be misconstrued). Hope everybody got home safely.

Oh yeah, and BIG thanks to Trev and the virgins for coming to the rescue again.

My shoulders are sore(ish), the elbows are good (thanks to jukie)
That road is rough.
Good to meet everyone.
Bummer about [leo]

That's a good clip Jukie & by the way nothing wrong with youthful exuberance - wish I had a bit more.

Also, thank Betty for the aerial display  :o - those of you at the front missed it, but her/his? carbon bits were around 10 off the ground when the rest of us sailed underneath.

C U next ride.

Thanks all for joining me on the ride. Yea that Wiseman's bit is a bit rough but still fun going up the hill.....  [moto]

Sounds like you guys had a good day.
But what's happened with you Betty?

Was a good trip. Could do without the drama next time. Betty, I think the carbon would be about the same cost as the Stu's fine [bang]

My speedo doesn't work  [roll]

The cable seems to have suffered a little damage as the rear hugger was unceremoniously ripped from its fixings (or snapped off at the fixing points actually). At some point on the ride I realised the speedo wasn't working and thinking 'I wonder how long its been like that' and then 'bugger, that's gonna be expensive'.

It wasn't until we stopped sometime later and somebody asked if anyone had lost something ... a rear hugger perhaps, that I realised what the problem was  [bang]

Some better than others (I certainly wasn't the worst effected) ... but the less said about that the better I think.

Hey guys, it was a great day, apart from my little run in with the  [leo] so I will be off the road for a little while. Not to worry though, it will give me time to go and think about how naughty I've been haha.

Anyway, here are some pics I took while we were waiting for the ferry at Wisemens Ferry. Excuse the camera phone pics and I know the photography skills are nowhere near Matty's level!
