Whereabouts are you gonna ride? I've wanted to learn the Terry Hills rides for awhile now... My leave pass is for tomorrow morning but I might be able to swap things around

Perimeter and Long trails plus a bit of St Ives ... if my young American friend can last the distance. Eye-wink

Great, my Leave pass for tomorrow got withdrawn so I've negotiated Sunday morning instead. I'll either join you guys or hit up the dam for a couple of laps

I'm pulling the pin. Recovering from a lower back disc bulge and it's given me curry today. I'll keep my eyes peeled for another ride

Hope your eyes are feeling better soon. Eye-wink

Sorry I missed this one, next time guys.

Jealous of @hawkeye getting up that pinch climb well done.

It is very important to ride very close behind someone else who is not going to make it so you have a good excuse for bailing.

... except when they don't actually stop, and then pedal away away from you up the hill! Sticking out tongue

... such as happened to me last time. Shall we say that provided some extra motivation this time Smiling
