I was talking about this segment. I was 4 spots behind, but last week he went and destroyed everyone. Apparently he was lost on that ride as well.

Will there be a ride this month?
Thinking of SOP-M2-Parra-SOP. This will be a quick ride and only about 50+km.

He'll take KOMs back when he wants to and by a huge margin. I was faster than him on a segment in second place. Both myself and the first place holder got bumped back very, very badly.. From ~43km/h average speed, the KOM was pushed up to 51.9km/h average. :shock:

He is very, very, fast. :) I think he goes out very early in the morning on rides, much earlier than I do so I've never come across him even though he does ride a lot in my area.

I might be able to make one of the dates, later in the month. I'll watch this thead and put up my availability when I know whats going on.
I have been travelling a lot for work, the last few weeks. Currently in Beaudesert (Qld).
Not all bad though. Brought my MTB. Have ridden the Kywarrak State Forest (Taree) on the way North, and today, Mt Joyce - Wyaralong Dam Rec park. Soooooo good!!

Claire, a $150 531? Blom in a tiny size(at most a 50cm). Possibly RX100 brakes, 6400 RD and maybe 6400 hubs as well. Only thing its down in Bowral, and may be a bit of a trek to get to.

Back after being away. Haven't been riding, so some easing back in to be done... (ride to work, at least). I'd be up for one of the 1st 2 weekends in December, though. :) But the silly season will be taking its toll by then, no doubt, on peoples' time. :|
Well, no, it's not a pushbike, otherwise I'd be pushing it...

I would love to go for a ride with Grant & the rest of the gang, but as BFV will be there, I am going to Melbourne instead

Hopefully we can find time for a December ride

Where were you thinking would be a good place for a ride ? Usual distances are 30 to 50 km - those keen for extra distance can ride to the start. A good coffee shop, while not essential, certainly adds to the ride.

we did one starting in Tempe > La Per' > Malabar. Allowing for train access for the riders afar, and suitable to most but not nessacarily all. Happy to hear suggestions, put it out there
