It's on in the middle of the night

[foo on patrol]

I used to be a 612 ABC early morning listener until some years ago the compare started to give cyclists a hard time, not just once either. So what is happening there now ?

Foo

Ah yes, I meant was there something good on today? It's a BQ mouthpiece on The Squeaky Wheel, and after Spencer had his hissy fit with me over the ABC's lawyers banning any mention of a worldwide news event when Richard Pollett's killer was found not guilty (we were due to talk about the 1.5m petition in June which was because of Richard's case) I have also found them more reluctant to look at cycling as objectively a they used to.i wasn't being purely sarcastic Foo

It's at least something about cycling and i have only caught it a couple of times but nothing negative yet.

It is a half hour segment on cycling.

Yup every Saturday morning as we are driving to the starting point of our ride...usually interesting conversations across a wide spectrum of cycling topics.

5am Saturday (or Sunday) is not a time, it is a sleep-depriving construct.

[hannos]

Saturdays (and sundays) have a 5am time???

[Boognoss]

Saturdays (and sundays) have a 5am time???

Yes that's when you should be out the door heading off for a long ride

But I rarely do these days.....

[briztoon]

Saturdays (and sundays) have a 5am time???

Yup, I'm usually riding over Camp Hill on my way to work at 5am. And yes I work weekends.

Driving to the startpoint? O M G

I don't feel I know you anymore.

[beanspropulsion]

I had a sleep in last weekend, got up at 5:15am.

Are they playing 80's tunes yet?

[ldrcycles]

5am Saturday (or Sunday) is not a time, it is virtually the afternoon and you should have been riding for ages already

FTFY .

I am not riding from home to Springbrook and return...I'm not Dimma

I's a time factor thing...plus after hammering it around the crit track at 40k+ I haven't got the legs to get me up Gaza Rd

Careful... you are tripping over the dead kittens.

[marinmomma]

Doing my bit to keep the feral kitten population under control

5am Sunday morning is the time to start the return leg from some 200+k ride from your Brissy front doorstep.
I can recommend Kin Kin Pub for the sleepover.

incidentally, Spencer and 612 in general have proven they are devoid of calm and considered objectivity....and nothing more than slaves to emotion and populist opinion. Good on you Aunty.

Just as an aside, if anyone on here is ever up that way and needs somewhere to rest, there's always a spare room at chateau de LDR .

onya LDR...hope your Mum and Dad agree to N+1 enduros slumming it.
