rob’s ride 20th July

When we got up and looked out the window the sky was
not looking to promising.

Its was cold, wet (like a mother-in-laws kiss) and only stopped
raining.

…then I started thinking this would be good practice
for the Brass Monkey Run.

I geared up and left for our big adventure.

got to McDonalds in Gladestone
Park and met up with a couple of members that we have not seen for a while (Postie
& Helen) which was a great surprise.

After the others turned up 6 bikes in total  and a blue thing with 4 wheels (shame on you brian).

We went passed the Airport through Bulla to the city
of roundabouts (Sunbury).

The weather was holding off and it wasn’t that
cold (just ask Brian).

About 4km from Riddles Creek it started to drissle with rain.

It wasnt too
heavy just enough to wet the roads and the riders.

We met up with Shrek in another 4 Wheel thingy (shame
on you too).

We left Riddles Creek about 2km up road it stopped raining .

We rode to Wallen via Derreweit Guim which is in the middle of nowhere and in parts
a very narrow and bumpy road.

Got to the pub warmed up by the open fire had a couple
of pots and a cheap meal which are a very healthy size.

It looked like the weather was going to change for the
worse.

We all saddled up and headed back via High Street to
Wapping, got onto Hume Hwy Bypass and headed home and missed all the rain.

No
one got lost (…this time  ED). It was a good
short winter ride enjoyed by all, even those in the heated waterproof tin cans!
