Hi Melbournians, is this ride still happening?  I may be in the city picking up my repaired bike then and wouldn't mind going for a ride with people that know some good roads locally.  Getting tired of travelling the Western hwy so often.

[Spider]

that would be great Heather - I do believe the boys are waiting till we get closer to the date because it will be subject to weather, the meeting last Saturday was great - but then quickly followed by 3 awful days of weather...

we're thinking Woodend / Macedon way - avoiding the wet & cold mountainous (King lake, black spur, reefton etc) regions.

be great to hear another 1000 in the pack!

You're always welcome Heather.  Hopefully it will be a good day weatherwise.

As for where we're going to go I'm hoping to do a bit of exploring before late shifts at work next week to finalise a suggested route.
Please note all that it will only be a suggestion to go along with everyone else's ideas.

G'day Heather, I was born in a coastal town 45 minutes south of you My family is still there, but usually take the car when I go down for a visit. I've been meaning to ride around the Grampians, especially the road from Halls Gap to Zumstiens, one day hopefully..... I've been told there are some decent roads heading towards the border as well, or is it just that they head towards the Coonawarra


Hey MelbMonsters there's an idea, in the spring how about an overnighter to Halls Gap? We can hire a couple of cabins and make a night of it......  [moto]

hey Matty, I was just given a Sony cybershot W150 by a beautiful woman last night - it's about the size of 2 mobile phones and has 8.1mp and a Zeiss lens, weighs a bit only f#ck all - absolutely perfect for taking on cycling trips.

Now I want some bling to come over so I can practise some shots!

Excellent news Spider, lots-a-snaps on the next ride then.

[Spider]

ah you boys will just have to buy my self-help book to all men:

The mouth, The Clitoris and The Feet:
A guide to making the woman in your life very happy

...


It will be a good little bit of kit - and Brendan's wife will be able to see the mischief he gets up to when not attending puppy school etc.

JC, you must try it! Moscato by Innocent Bystander. After drinking you won't be able to get out of bed.....she won't let you!

Hey Matty - there is a cyber-shot model above mine that is 13.1 mp - now at that point I understand chipsets and lens will let the camera down - but hell that's impressive!
