Remember the days when we rode in pairs and had enough spare lung capacity to talk to each other? For this boy at least looks like these days are long gone. Need all the O2 I can get and more just to hang on Must be getting old right enough.

Fitted the levers, rear derailer and changed all the cables to a set of stainless ones. Waiting for a new cassette and chain to go with my manly compact crank. Watch out FPRs George will have an extra gear soon. Keep an eye out for the flying falcon!! Cant wait to see my average finally reach 30+ YEAH I ROCK .
Few for a short moment I thought I was going to purchase a new bike, Silly me, what was I thinking. The Giants good for another 5 years at least.

We should go section hunting in the next two weeks. Once it warms up more there are more pedestrians particularly in the northern half. Need a cool dry day. The wind direction will make some segments more realistic than others...

I'm new to TNFPR you guys have going on. Definitely looks fun (and painful ). I'll try and get out there tonight and see if I can join in on some of the action although I'm coming up from Prestons so I'll only be on one leg of the trip and sneak out when you guys head back.
I hope the rest of you aren't this soft...NotFlyingScot wrote:Just remembered have a late arvo appointment at Westmead tomorrow. Looks like you guys will not get to put me in the hurtbox tomorrow night after all

Where'd you find that photo big man? That must be first photo I've seen of me racing in which I do not look to be in pain and actually look like I might know what I'm doingzozza wrote:
