Good to see some of the old faces such as Micalef out and about again on Tuesday nights. You know it's going to be a hard night when we're strung out in a single line before we've even got to Quakers Hill
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.

Ehly, congratulations on your recent sale to Georgey,

Yeah Ehly well done

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.

Did you fit a motor to your bike too?

You’re so immature Chucky

So I got a new toy...

It's in the sig.

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...

Am not

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

I should be able to get out there tonight, but not sure whether I'll get to the start on time or I'll be meeting you down at Prestons.

I'm in for another installment of pain, I mean fun

G'day fellas,

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...

Thanks for the ride guys. It was pretty good until I got cramps in both legs on the Wallgrove road climb and dropped back Following this my chain came off just after the Elizabeth Drive hill

Not making excuses though.. hopefully I'll be able to come out in a fortnights time

Nice cruisey ride tonight guys. Good turnout too (at least at the start ). Nice to meet you Jerone and Andrew.

And Ehly, Lu didn't put the hurt on us, just on himself going to Prestons

Cheers,
Greg

Nice to meet you Dave, just leave it in the big ring and it will have less chance of falling off

Ditto Greg, nice cruisy pace tonite, Resume to normal activity next Tuesday.

Those wheels should be ridden in B grade at a minimum

You look like a Pro Sandy!!!
