  1. Just heard from a mate who lives out that way.
    Apparently the resurfacing on the YarraGlen Rd has been completed.
    So, was thinking we could add the loop (rightturn at KGround) to Watson's Creek and back (left) up Alma Rd to panton Hill and bakery stop as usual at Smiths Gully. Those with aversions to more hills can just go onto Smiths Gully and have the coffees and muffins waiting 😄

    thoughts peoplz?

    F"more hills means more muffins"Dutch

    Sounds good to me, I might even tag along for the extra section on the
    first week. Then I will come to my senses and go straight for coffee and
    muffins on the subsequent weeks.

  6. Hi guys, I have not been on a BR in a while, have had good reasons
    for it. Had an accident while kite surfing. Now I am well from that, but
    now I have a nasty infected wound on my leg from some other [censored], making me eat antibiotics, so I am still not ready for a spin. Next weekend if on, I just might be there. Enjoy the ride this weekend.

    Owww. Sounds painful, Claes - will be good to see you out when you can make
    it. Kite surfing... why is my life so dull?

    damn, get well soon and all that...

    perhaps you could put that kite to better use and beat the downhill sped record 😄 😄 😄

    Hey Claes

    I was wondering what happened to you. I spose that Cervelo is still in
    mint condition then 😉

    Yeah, it is in good condition, that will NEVER change. *hold thumbs*
    Sounds like you kind of like it? I thought you were a proper "steel is real" man 😉 Funny things is, although it alu, and has "mid aero wheels" It is just marginally worse, vibrantion wise, than my de vicining, Columbus SPX, tubulars on very not aero rims. 🙂 Or maybe it is placebo, I sort of like the bugger so I might want it to be that way. 🙂

    Ha ha, kite in the air, and on a bicycle, could be done but the risk involved is sort russian roulette, inversed, five chambers full, one empty. 🙂

    I rode 50 k this weekend, to sandringham and back, 50k, so I might be ready for a slowish BR next weekend. Only thing is now I am in Kensington, how far is that going to be to Doncaster? How lost will I get on the way there? 😉

    Dull? BRs are not dull, Kite surfing is just different.
