Rides This Week & Tuesday Ride Report

Tuesday Ride Report:

Route: the Whangie, relatively dry conditions and a great night for it – except for Stuart who managed to land in the mud on the way down.   16 riders out. A puncture and a disintegrating rear mech before even leaving the car park made for a late-ish start.  3 more punctures and Bradley’s tumble near the end meant we weren’t back until after 10pm.  Despite the mechanicals and a few falls it seemed like everyone who was out had a great ride and it was the first time up the Whangie for a few folks.  If anyone who was taking pictures can post a few that would be great.
