[mattyvas]

So cold then!
Glad you all had a good day.

[Jukie]

just came back from dinner in wentworth falls as we walk 10 minutes in the freezing cold, but now near a wood fire hhmmmm warm

[Six95]

no dust today.

in summary: lots of wind. and hail. and snow. and cold. and more cold. then pizza. then more cold. then home.

Any photos?
I couldnt even begin to imagine all the obscenities coming out of your mouth Craigo when riding through those conditions.

[heatherp]

Sounds like a normal day in Victoria!

[Jukie]

we will post some pics when we get home sometime today

[Betty]

Hey Jukie that ain't fog it's dust

The fog comment is what you call wishful thinking ... she knew exactly what it was.

in summary: lots of wind. and hail. and snow. and cold. and more cold. then pizza. then more cold. then home.

Oh c'mon it wasn't that cold. Once I put my inner-gloves and jumper on at Lithgow it was almost toasty.

Must say though, the perforations in the leathers work a treat

just came back from dinner in wentworth falls as we walk 10 minutes in the freezing cold

By way of comparison this 10 minute walk to the pub was rather ... umm ... refreshing. My arms were aching by the time we got back ... if I hadn't held on as tight as I did I could have lost her. Blowing like a bastard it was.

This one really cracked me up ... Craigo swearing ... no make the beast with two backsing way!

OK so without our resident snapper in attendance I kinda forgot I was supposed to take photos. Belatedly and quickly snapped a couple without much thought until Ivan got a little creative. Apologies for the general crappiness.



Anyone would think they are turning their backs in disgust (do you think someone is a little cold?)





Decision time at Lithgow



Ivan getting creative in Matty's absence



Lunchie munchie



Dust. What dust?

[FIFO]

 
  Hey Betty good to see you all braved the elements.
  The FOG lifted earlyer than i thought, thick as here at 600.am and eating it,still coughing up dust. went back to bed and it was all gone by 9.00am thought it was going to hang around until lunch like last week.

Snowed over night up there brother in law was bush walking the six foot track. had to walk back in snow.
 
How many ended up going?

How about an interim Sydney ride as planned to Bathurst?

so let me see, you are saying you were SOFT 

 Well Jukie what can i say.
I wasn't there I'm soft but it wasn't the Dust that scared me it was the cook
wasn't very happy to see me ride of into a dust storm
Wasn't worth the grief.

[Jukie]
