Mixed masters team of 4:

Whisperer
Steve01
Gazza
Martine

We are aiming to have someone from the team leave early-ish on Friday to get a good spot set up the 'whisperer tarp'.
Does anyone know if we'll be able to camp trackside? i.e. does the track run past the camping area?

Bikeboy's picture

a memory problem . turned 42 three weeks ago and my mind hasnt caught up . There is Evan ( yet to meet ) Anke ( yet to meet)
Kiwigirl (yet to meet) GeordieAndy ( Think i met him on the last oaks ride i did ) As for drinking early ......G Free beer costs about $ 93 per slab so i dont drink much , rather spend on the bike , races etc
I am looking forward to meeting a few more people though ...... Is anyone coming on my ride on the 27 April ????

The Snoring Forties have been struck down by bad luck this year. Not through bike related injuries but the other evil tasks necessary to make cycling possible (ie Work).

I suspect there might be a couple of us down Friday.

I'm in a team with riders from all over the state. Buggered if I know what we are called though.

I'm just turning up to ride, and if we stay true to previous years, will be the sucker who starts the race.

My team

Dangersean - woohoo he can ride all day for us!, only other NobMoB guy
Robbo and Clint who rode in my team last year
Evan bit of roid guy
Me - got a new bike too!

I will be down about 11am on Friday to set up camp. I can stake out some tent spots if you wish but i will need some tape and stakes.

Andrew

Buck's picture

New bike Lorrie? Is it a Specialized again!? Everyone make sure you have your cameras ready Laughing out loud

Bruce's picture

Who is in your team then Christine?

lozza6's picture

whats the team name?

kiwiboy's picture

also in with riders from other parts and no idea what we are called - bunch of old buggers sounds appropriate Smiling
Team of 4 - not sure whose idea that was.
----------------------------------------------
if at first you don't succeed, try not to look astonished.

christine's picture

cant remember... caro? do you know?

Bikeboy's picture

being bagged for not knowing this info from my mont team , or was that just an accusation of being drunk ......I did remember the name

christine's picture

who is on the team... but can't remember the name - oooh the joys of being Blonde...

Bikeboy's picture

doesn't count as knowing the team .....ha ha .

christine's picture

least i can recognise my team which is more than you can!

craigs's picture

Blondie this is quite odd, you started the thread and yet are unable to post your own team, cmon get the details posted!
You mentioned Stuart and Liam at one stage if that helps jog the memory. Maybe your team are watching and will own up and help out. Too funny...

lozza6's picture

we're watching Eye-wink

Bikeboy's picture

And i am hoping he will introduce them to me .......or perhaps you can , either way it will be a fun weekend ......just if i meet the team i will have friends for the weekend

anke13's picture

You're on my team....
Team El Rancho Relaxo (I've got nothing to do with the name) Smiling

Members in random and no particular order:
Delicious
Bikeboy
Kiwigirl
Evan
Andrew
myself

I think Delicious and Kiwiboy will be down on Friday. I'm still trying to get organised.

Looking forward to seeing you all

Anke Eye-wink

Bikeboy's picture

I know who is on my team , have yet to meet all but Delicous though, and i did send an email the other night . I was just teasing Christine a little , note comment re bad humour on my email , i wasnt joking it is really bad but never mean to offend just have a bit of fun . It looks like being a fantastic weekend hey ?

anke13's picture

Haha, must be true what they say about the German sense of humour Smiling

Yeah, it will be fun. I still have to source a sleeping bag and matt.

kiwigirl's picture

I know you meant me Smiling but confusing when there is a kiwiboy as well. I have found a tarp to borrow, I know Delicious was hoping one of us could bring one so will probably go down Friday evening now to get that there in plenty of time I guess. Didn't I see Evan mentioned in another team?? Is that the same Evan as our team member? He will be busy!!

delicious's picture

I have a sleeping bag for you. It's a light weight sunner type so not real warm. Just wear lots of clothes prior to getting inside it.

anke13's picture

I only just saw that. I think I was concentrating so hard on getting the names right, that I lost the plot in my last sentence. Happens all the time Smiling

Maybe there are 2 Evans?

Have a great day!

christine's picture

Right!
My next question is – who is going down earlish on Friday other than Lorrie as I assume we will all want to camp together? I know I want to be near the Snoring Forties so I can see Greg get his Race Hitler Face and wave that whiteboard around...

dangersean's picture

I'm aiming to be there by 4pm... but i am part of camp Lorrie...
I can try help Lorrie spread out as much as possible..

Whisperer's picture

I expect to leave around 8 to arrive there by 12.
Yes, we want to camp together as Nobmob bunch, it's always fun like that.
We really want to be close to transition, or beside the track for easy transitions, particularly during the night.
I've asked before but does anyone know if the track goes by the camping area?
I've got some wooden stakes (with Nobmob written on them) to help marking out an area, and some tape is good too (we've used pink in the past, $6/100m from bunnings).

We'll have a 6*5m tarp, a gazebo, couple of tents and a few cars.
Who else is putting up a tarp, because it can be good to do them side by side to make a good big area?

Buzz's picture

****Warning, Warning ******

One of the guys I'm racing with says the wet weather is on its way so bring that tarp and bring a heater too. When it's fine it gets down to 4 degrees at night (especially in the forest), if it rains it will hit zero.

Day time temps are high (30 if fine, 20 if wet) and humidity moderate (30% to 40% if fine, 100% if wet).

Go Big or Go Home

christine's picture

good lord! (and it wasn't even Ben who started it...)

mind you, rain and no showers - what a wonderful prospect...

kiwigirl's picture

our team will have at least one tarp, not sure what size yet but will get as big as possible. Smiling
I will be down Friday night with that.

GAZZA's picture

Bernd's picture

Pikey has this John Holmes fellow ridden the bird before.

They also say you will be waiting long time for him to finish his turn.

pikey's picture

.....has been known to black out on long distant events but he has proven himself as a long rider with long tools for any job needing fixing on the trails.
